After Action Report

The Bulls handled the Cavaliers 92-78. Ugly basketball, but the Bulls did just enough. Shots just aren't falling for the Cavaliers lately; Cavaliers' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Cavaliers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Cavaliers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
