After Action Report

The Lakers knocked off the Bulls 110-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Bulls sent shots into the fifth row all night. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bulls · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
  • Bulls · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
