After Action Report
The Bulls fended off the Trail Blazers 114-105. Bulls' scorers couldn't be contained. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Bulls; Bulls' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Trail Blazers locker-room rift aren't helping. The Bulls rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bulls · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
