After Action Report

The Bulls ran roughshod over the Cavaliers 127-104. The Bulls got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Bulls carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; second-chance points piled up for the Cavaliers. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Bulls' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
