After Action Report
The Bulls squeaked past the Hawks 118-114. Bulls' offense had its way with the Hawks. The Bulls carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Hawks are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Hawks locker-room rift aren't helping. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bulls · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
