After Action Report
In a track meet, the Bulls took care of the Hornets 107-92. The Bulls won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Bulls. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Hornets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
