After Action Report
The Bulls took care of the Lakers 129-115. Bulls controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bulls bent the defense out of shape from deep. Tonight's Lakers utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Lakers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
