After Action Report
In Chicago, the Knicks survived the Bulls 122-120. Knicks' scorers couldn't be contained. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Knicks; the Knicks pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- 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.
- Knicks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
