After Action Report
In a track meet, the Pacers outlasted the Bulls 112-98. The tempo dragged the Bulls into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Pacers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Pacers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Pacers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
