After Action Report

In Sacramento, the Kings rolled past the Bulls 136-87. The breakneck pace played right into Kings' hands. Kings' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Bulls couldn't shake the cold spell. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Kings per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
