After Action Report

The Bobcats ran roughshod over the Pistons 117-97. Bobcats torched the Pistons on the offensive end. Bobcats' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bobcats owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Bobcats locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Bobcats · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bobcats · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bobcats · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Bobcats · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
