After Action Report

In Chicago, the Mavericks pulled away from the Bulls 116-106. Mavericks controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Mavericks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bulls · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
