After Action Report

The Bobcats downed the Kings 115-96. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Bobcats owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Bobcats came in with something to prove after a loss. The Kings looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger.

What tipped it

  • Bobcats · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bobcats · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
