After Action Report
The Pacers ran roughshod over the Bulls 114-81. Pacers' positional fit overwhelmed the Bulls rotation. The Pacers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Bulls are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping. It was over by halftime.
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.
- Pacers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
