After Action Report
The Bulls rolled past the Celtics 130-98. The Bulls got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Bulls came in with something to prove after a loss; Bulls' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
