After Action Report
The Bulls pulled away from the Pistons 108-89. Bulls' offense had its way with the Pistons. The Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Bulls' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
