After Action Report

The Bulls buried the Hawks 142-122. The Hawks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Bulls' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

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