After Action Report
In Chicago, the Bulls ran roughshod over the Jazz 120-97. Bulls torched the Jazz on the offensive end. The Bulls came in with something to prove after a loss; the Jazz couldn't shake the cold spell. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Jazz's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Jazz · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
