After Action Report
The Hawks ran roughshod over the Bulls 102-82. Every possession went the Hawks way. The Hawks bent the defense out of shape from deep; Bulls' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
