After Action Report

In Chicago, the Raptors pulled away from the Bulls 105-88. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Raptors played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Bulls' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Raptors · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
