After Action Report

The Bulls fended off the Bobcats 111-102. Bulls controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Fresh off a statement win, the Bulls stayed locked in; Bulls' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Bobcats looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Bobcats utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Bobcats · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bobcats · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Bobcats · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
