After Action Report

The Jazz knocked off the Bulls 97-94. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Jazz answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.

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 · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
