After Action Report
In Chicago, the Lakers outlasted the Bulls 114-106. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bulls looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them.
What tipped it

- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
