After Action Report

The Celtics downed the Bulls 111-98. The better team simply showed up tonight. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Celtics; the Bulls are in a full-on tailspin. The Bulls looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • 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.
