After Action Report
The Bulls pulled away from the Trail Blazers 112-95. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Bulls carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Bulls' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. The Trail Blazers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
