After Action Report

The Bobcats outlasted the Mavericks 119-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bobcats cashed in. Bobcats' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bobcats owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Bobcats bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Bobcats per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
