After Action Report

In Chicago, the Bulls buried the Hawks 141-110. The Bulls got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Bulls; the Bulls came in with something to prove after a loss. The Hawks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bulls · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
