After Action Report
The Bulls buried the Hornets 125-100. Bulls' offense had its way with the Hornets. Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Bulls came in with something to prove after a loss. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Hornets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- 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.
- Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
