After Action Report

The Bulls pulled away from the Raptors 114-102. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Bulls steamroller is in full effect right now; Raptors' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. The Raptors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Raptors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
