After Action Report
The Bulls fended off the Heat 104-96. Lineup balance gave the Bulls a clear synergy edge. Fresh off a statement win, the Bulls stayed locked in; Bulls' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Bulls rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Bulls · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
