After Action Report

In Golden State, the Bulls snuck past the Warriors 98-97. The Warriors couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Bulls. Bulls' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Warriors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
