After Action Report
The Bulls squeaked past the Hawks 110-105. Bulls' scorers couldn't be contained. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Hawks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
