NBA Roundup: Bell, Bobcats topple Hawks
ADVERTISEMENT
Published: November 7, 2009
Bobcats 103, Hawks 83: Raja Bell scored 24 points and Charlotte looked nothing like the NBA's lowest-scoring team, beating road-weary Atlanta last night.
Bell hit 9 of 12 shots, including 5 of 6 from 3-point range, Ronald "Flip" Murray added 15 points in his Charlotte debut, and Gerald Wallace offset a poor shooting night with 18 rebounds in the Bobcats' second straight win.
The Hawks struggled defensively and saw their two-game winning streak snapped at the end of a difficult trip that also took them to Los Angeles, Portland and Sacramento. Josh Smith and Jamal Crawford each scored 13 points, but combined to shoot 10 of 27 from the field.
The Hawks fell behind by 21 in the third quarter and scored only 14 points in the fourth.
