After Action Report
The Bulls demolished the Hawks 143-122. The breakneck pace played right into Bulls' hands. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Bulls. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it

- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
