After Action Report
The Bulls upended the Pacers 111-110 in overtime. The Bulls got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Bulls' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Bulls' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Early returns: the Bulls per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
