After Action Report

The Bulls rolled past the Mavericks 139-109. Bulls torched the Mavericks on the offensive end. Second-chance points piled up for the Mavericks; Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
