After Action Report
The Trail Blazers snuck past the Bulls 105-101. Every possession went the Trail Blazers way. Trail Blazers' outside barrage was a constant threat; Bulls' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- 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.
