After Action Report
In Chicago, the Magic downed the Bulls 112-102. Ugly basketball, but the Magic did just enough. The Bulls couldn't shake the cold spell. The Magic bench chemistry carried them. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
