After Action Report
The Lakers buried the Bulls 127-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; the Lakers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
