After Action Report

The Lakers blew the doors off the Bulls 125-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. Lakers' outside barrage was a constant threat; the Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bulls · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
