After Action Report
In Chicago, the Heat downed the Bulls 100-85. Heat torched the Bulls on the offensive end. The Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- 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.
- Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
