After Action Report
The Bulls blew the doors off the Pistons 123-96. The Bulls got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Bulls carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Pistons' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Pistons looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Pistons' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Pistons · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
