After Action Report
The Bulls pulled away from the Lakers 106-96. Ugly basketball, but the Bulls did just enough. The Bulls answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Bulls bent the defense out of shape from deep. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
