After Action Report
In Chicago, the Celtics edged the Bulls 109-103. Celtics torched the Bulls on the offensive end. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; the Bulls are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
