After Action Report

In Detroit, the Bulls buried the Pistons 115-94. Bulls controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Bulls' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
