After Action Report
The Bulls outlasted the Pistons 120-112. The Pistons had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the Bulls lately; the Bulls bent the defense out of shape from deep. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
