After Action Report

The Kings snuck past the Bulls 113-110. The breakneck pace played right into Kings' hands. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the Bulls stayed locked in. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Kings per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 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.
  • Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
