After Action Report

The Cavaliers snuck past the Bulls 100-96. Every possession went the Cavaliers way. The Cavaliers came in with something to prove after a loss; Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Cavaliers bench chemistry carried them. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bulls · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
  • Bulls · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Cavaliers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
