After Action Report
In Chicago, the Bulls buried the Hornets 140-119. The Bulls got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Bulls' outside barrage was a constant threat; the Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Early returns: the Bulls per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
