After Action Report
The Bobcats ran roughshod over the Heat 116-96. Every possession went the Bobcats way. The Bobcats sent shots into the fifth row all night; the Bobcats steamroller is in full effect right now. The Bobcats bench chemistry carried them. Heat's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
