After Action Report
The Bulls ran roughshod over the Cavaliers 129-102. The Cavaliers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Bulls stayed locked in. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

- Bulls · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
