After Action Report
The Bulls outlasted the Pistons 124-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bulls cashed in. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bulls steamroller is in full effect right now. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- 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.
- Pistons · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
