After Action Report

In Charlotte, the Bobcats ran roughshod over the Pistons 130-98. The tempo dragged the Pistons into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Bobcats carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Bobcats locker room is humming, and it showed. The Bobcats rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.
