After Action Report
The Bulls buried the Raptors 124-80. Bulls' scorers couldn't be contained. The Bulls ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Bulls' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Raptors looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Bulls per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
