After Action Report
In Chicago, the Jazz outlasted the Bulls 109-95. The tempo dragged the Bulls into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Jazz owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
