After Action Report
The Nets edged the Bulls 111-102. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Nets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Bulls looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- 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.
