The Bulls survived the Celtics 106-103. The Celtics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Bulls. The Bulls looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; Bulls' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Bulls per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
