After Action Report
The Bulls took care of the Magic 95-84. The Magic couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Bulls. Second-chance points piled up for the Bulls; the Bulls looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
