After Action Report
The Bulls shocked the Clippers 109-78. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Bulls carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; second-chance points piled up for the Clippers. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Bulls per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Clippers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bulls · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
