After Action Report
The Bulls snuck past the Pacers 86-82. Bulls torched the Pacers on the offensive end. The Bulls came in with something to prove after a loss; Bulls' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Pacers locker-room rift aren't helping. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bulls · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
