After Action Report
The Bulls survived the Pistons 109-108. The Bulls won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Pistons couldn't shake the cold spell; Pistons' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. The Bulls rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
