After Action Report
In Miami, the Bulls blew the doors off the Heat 109-89. The Bulls got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Bulls ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; second-chance points piled up for the Heat. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Heat utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bulls · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
