After Action Report
The Bulls demolished the Raptors 118-92. Bulls' scorers couldn't be contained. The Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Raptors' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Raptors' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- 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.
