The Knight and the Pistons are in the same division, so the highest ranking they can achieve in the East is fourth. The Knight have no pressure in terms of ranking, their only goal is to hit 50 wins.
Winning 3 out of 4 games is still quite pressure-inducing for the Knight.
The biggest pressure comes from the opponents they're facing right now...
At 6 p.m., the game kicked off.
James, so far, hadn't found a way to break through the Bobcats' defense. Technique and fundamentals were lacking, and simply trying to think of solutions wasn't going to solve the problem.
But the Bobcats' defense against James could be further optimized through tactical improvements!
In the first quarter, the Bobcats came out with a score of 23 to 13, immediately silencing the home crowd!
By the second quarter, the Bobcats continued to suppress the Knight, scoring 22 to 20, leading by 12 points at halftime with a score of 45 to 33!
