After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Bulls snuck past the Lakers 117-114. Lineup balance gave the Bulls a clear synergy edge. Bulls' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bulls bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Bulls bench chemistry carried them. 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.
