After Action Report

In Chicago, the Bulls outlasted the Nuggets 109-94. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Bulls' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
