After Action Report
The Knicks buried the Bulls 116-75. Knicks' offense had its way with the Bulls. The Knicks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Knicks' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
