After Action Report

In New Jersey, the Bulls blew the doors off the Nets 122-97. The breakneck pace played right into Bulls' hands. Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Bulls pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • 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.
