After Action Report

The Bulls held off the Clippers 86-80. The Bulls won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Bulls' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Bulls' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Clippers locker-room rift aren't helping. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
