After Action Report
The Bulls downed the Heat 104-88. Ugly basketball, but the Bulls did just enough. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the Bulls stayed locked in. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Heat utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
What tipped it

- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
