After Action Report
In Chicago, the Knicks took care of the Bulls 136-122. The breakneck pace played right into Knicks' hands. Fresh off a statement win, the Knicks stayed locked in; Knicks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- 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.
- Knicks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
