After Action Report
The Bulls blew the doors off the Celtics 118-96. Bulls torched the Celtics on the offensive end. The Bulls ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Celtics utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
