After Action Report
The Bulls outlasted the Lakers 114-97. Every possession went the Bulls way. Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Bulls steamroller is in full effect right now. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. The Bulls rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
