After Action Report
In New York, the Bulls rolled past the Knicks 104-84. The Bulls won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Bulls' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
