After Action Report

The Nets demolished the Bulls 122-84. The Nets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Nets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; second-chance points piled up for the Bulls. The Bulls looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
