After Action Report
The Bulls blew the doors off the Pistons 126-102. The Bulls got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Bulls steamroller is in full effect right now; the Bulls bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Bulls · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
