After Action Report

The Bulls survived the Hornets 100-96. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Bulls ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Bulls' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

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