After Action Report

In a track meet, the Bulls took care of the Hornets 130-111. Bulls torched the Hornets on the offensive end. The Bulls pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Hornets are in a full-on tailspin. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Hornets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
