The Bobcats took a 14 point lead into the half, gave it all back in the third quarter, then struggled through the fourth, and then stormed back in the final few minutes of the game to force overtime. In the extra period, they carried over their momentum from crunch time, eventually defeating the Minnesota Timberwolves, 108-105.
Too bad D.J. couldn't nail that clean look for the dagger at the buzzer. Overtime in Minneapolis!
Is it "better" or "worse" to screw up a situation that's already at rock bottom, or one that's on the fringes of playoff contention?
