After Action Report
The Knicks pulled away from the Bulls 120-110. Knicks torched the Bulls on the offensive end. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Knicks. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Knicks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
