In Chicago, the Bulls pulled away from the Rockets 112-99. Bulls' scorers couldn't be contained. Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Bulls carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Bulls per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
