After Action Report
The Lakers outlasted the Bulls 95-78. The Bulls couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Lakers. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; the Lakers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
