After Action Report
The Bulls knocked off the Lakers 90-86. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Shots just aren't falling for the Bulls lately; the Lakers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Lakers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
