After Action Report

The Bulls downed the Cavaliers 110-99. Bulls torched the Cavaliers on the offensive end. The Bulls answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Bulls' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Cavaliers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Cavaliers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
