After Action Report
The Bulls stunned the Hawks 120-116. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bulls cashed in. Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Hawks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
