After Action Report

In Chicago, the Bulls buried the Heat 128-106. Bulls' scorers couldn't be contained. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bulls pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Heat looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Heat · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
