After Action Report

The Bobcats took care of the Cavaliers 112-95. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Bobcats' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the Bobcats stayed locked in. The Bobcats bench chemistry carried them. Bobcats' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Bobcats · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bobcats · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Bobcats · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
