After Action Report
The Bulls blew the doors off the Knicks 144-99. Bulls torched the Knicks on the offensive end. Fresh off a statement win, the Bulls stayed locked in; the Bulls bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Knicks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Knicks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
