After Action Report
In Chicago, the Bulls edged the Raptors 117-108. Bulls torched the Raptors on the offensive end. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. The Raptors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Raptors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
