After Action Report

The Bulls blew the doors off the Cavaliers 137-109. Bulls torched the Cavaliers on the offensive end. The Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Bulls came in with something to prove after a loss. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. The Cavaliers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 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.
  • Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
