After Action Report
The Cavaliers rolled past the Bulls 117-94. Cavaliers' positional fit overwhelmed the Bulls rotation. Second-chance points piled up for the Cavaliers; the Cavaliers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Cavaliers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Cavaliers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
