After Action Report
In Chicago, the Bulls ran roughshod over the Cavaliers 99-79. Ugly basketball, but the Bulls did just enough. Bulls' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Cavaliers couldn't shake the cold spell. The Cavaliers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
