After Action Report

The Bulls demolished the Grizzlies 118-85. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bulls cashed in. Bulls' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Grizzlies' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Grizzlies · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Grizzlies · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
