After Action Report
The Mavericks ran roughshod over the Bulls 142-82. The Mavericks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Bulls couldn't shake the cold spell; Bulls' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Bulls looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- 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.
