After Action Report
The Bulls outlasted the Rockets 108-98. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Bulls pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
