After Action Report

In Chicago, the Bulls squeaked past the Magic 105-101. The Magic couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Bulls. The Bulls answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; second-chance points piled up for the Magic. The Bulls locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
