After Action Report
The Bulls squeaked past the Cavaliers 100-96. Bulls torched the Cavaliers on the offensive end. Bulls' outside barrage was a constant threat; Cavaliers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
