After Action Report
The Bulls stunned the Knicks 111-107. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Bulls carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. 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
- 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.
