After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Hawks held off the Bulls 117-110. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Hawks; the Hawks are in a full-on tailspin. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it

- Hawks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bulls · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
