After Action Report
The Hawks buried the Bulls 126-96. Lineup balance gave the Hawks a clear synergy edge. Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Hawks' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Bulls looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
