After Action Report
The Bulls survived the Cavaliers 101-99. The Cavaliers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Bulls. The Bulls ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Bulls' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
