After Action Report

In Chicago, the Heat upended the Bulls 95-79. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Heat carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; shots just aren't falling for the Bulls lately. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Bulls utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Heat · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
