After Action Report
The Bulls buried the Lakers 128-95. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bulls cashed in. Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Lakers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Bulls per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
