After Action Report
In Chicago, the Bulls demolished the Jazz 129-95. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bulls cashed in. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bulls played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. The Bulls rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Jazz · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
