After Action Report
In Chicago, the Bulls ran roughshod over the Pacers 135-110. The Pacers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Bulls' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Bulls per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pacers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
