After Action Report
The Bulls survived the Clippers 106-105. The Clippers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Bulls. The Bulls came in with something to prove after a loss; the Bulls bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Bulls per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
