After Action Report

In a track meet, the Bulls demolished the Celtics 127-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bulls cashed in. Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Bulls answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Bulls per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
