After Action Report

The Bulls handled the Knicks 115-98. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Bulls looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them.

  • Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bulls · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
