After Action Report
In a track meet, the Bulls downed the Rockets 140-121. Bulls' scorers couldn't be contained. Bulls' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
