After Action Report
In Milwaukee, the Bulls ran roughshod over the Bucks 124-90. Bulls controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Bulls played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Bulls' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Whispers of a Bucks locker-room rift aren't helping. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Bucks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Bucks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bulls · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
