After Action Report

The Bobcats outlasted the Hornets 91-83. The Hornets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Bobcats. The Bobcats sent shots into the fifth row all night; the Hornets came in with something to prove after a loss. The Bobcats bench chemistry carried them. Bobcats' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
