After Action Report
The Bulls snuck past the Hawks 97-94. Ugly basketball, but the Bulls did just enough. The Bulls came in with something to prove after a loss; Bulls' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
