After Action Report

The Bulls held off the Nets 103-96. Bulls' scorers couldn't be contained. The Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions; shots just aren't falling for the Bulls lately. Whispers of a Nets locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Nets utilization choices clashed with the team identity.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
