After Action Report

In New Jersey, the Bulls squeaked past the Nets 90-89. Every possession went the Bulls way. Shots just aren't falling for the Bulls lately; Bulls' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nets · 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.
