After Action Report

The Bulls demolished the Raptors 117-96. The Raptors had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Bulls; Bulls' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Raptors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
