The Bulls buried the Pacers 115-83. Bulls' scorers couldn't be contained. The Bulls played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Pacers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
