After Action Report

The Magic took care of the Bulls 112-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Magic cashed in. Magic's outside barrage was a constant threat; second-chance points piled up for the Bulls. The Bulls looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 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.
