After Action Report

The Bulls buried the Timberwolves 136-111. Bulls torched the Timberwolves on the offensive end. The Bulls answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Timberwolves are in a full-on tailspin. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Bulls · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
