After Action Report

The Bulls edged the Suns 122-114. Bulls' scorers couldn't be contained. Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Bulls pushed the pace until the other side broke. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

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