After Action Report
The Bulls held off the Hawks 105-99. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Second-chance points piled up for the Bulls; Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
