After Action Report
The Hawks squeaked past the Bulls 99-98. Ugly basketball, but the Hawks did just enough. The Hawks pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Bulls are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Bulls utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
