Bulls' Blowout Loss Exposes a Problem Tiago Splitter Must Fix

The Bulls' 134-99 loss to Boston exposed issues beyond shooting. Tiago Splitter must address turnovers, rebounding and defensive lapses. The Chicago Bulls suffered a 134-99 loss to the Boston Celtics, highlighting their ongoing shooting struggles. The team committed 25 turnovers, lost the rebounding battle, and watched a competitive game unravel in the third quarter. Boston made 21 of 44 three-point attempts and outrebounded Chicago 54-40. The Bulls' head coach, Tiago Splitter, emphasized the need for a better job of finishing possessions and maintaining discipline when pressure increases. The rebounding gap was another major concern, with Boston collecting 54 rebounds to Chicago's 40, creating extra opportunities and limiting the Bulls' defensive performance. The loss highlighted the team's lack of size and inability to sustain their defensive effort for entire quarters. The return of 6-foot-11 center Nic Claxton, who has been sidelined due to a strained hamstring, could help improve the team’s rim protection and rebounding.
