After Action Report
The Bulls blew the doors off the Hornets 114-92. Every possession went the Bulls way. Bulls' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Bulls. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. The Hornets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
