After Action Report

The Knicks outlasted the Bulls 118-109 in overtime. The Bulls had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the Knicks lately; Knicks' outside barrage was a constant threat. Tonight's Bulls utilization choices clashed with the team identity.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Knicks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
