After Action Report

The Bulls snuck past the 76ers 100-99. Ugly basketball, but the Bulls did just enough. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bulls carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
