After Action Report
In Chicago, the Bulls squeaked past the Pacers 121-117. Bulls torched the Pacers on the offensive end. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers are in a full-on tailspin. The Pacers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
