After Action Report
The Bulls blew the doors off the Trail Blazers 122-87. The Bulls got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Bulls carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Bulls' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
