After Action Report
The Bulls ran roughshod over the Lakers 143-80. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bulls cashed in. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bulls played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
