After Action Report
The Bulls rolled past the Rockets 105-72. The Rockets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Bulls' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Rockets are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.

- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
