After Action Report

The Bulls buried the Nets 111-91. The better team simply showed up tonight. Bulls' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Nets are in a full-on tailspin. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Nets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
