After Action Report
In Chicago, the Bulls ran roughshod over the Lakers 121-90. The Bulls got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Bulls' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
