After Action Report
In Chicago, the Bulls survived the Lakers 103-99. Bulls torched the Lakers on the offensive end. Bulls' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; Lakers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
