After Action Report

The Bulls demolished the Hawks 104-84. Bulls' offense had its way with the Hawks. Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 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.
  • Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bulls · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
