After Action Report
The Bulls survived the Bobcats 101-97. The Bulls won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Bulls; Bulls' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
