After Action Report
The Bulls took care of the Pacers 126-116. The tempo dragged the Pacers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Bulls; Bulls' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Pacers utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
