The Chicago Bulls blasted the highly undermanned Indiana Paces on Saturday, 118-101. The Bulls are on a two-game winning streak to start the season.
The Bulls took advantage of the Pacers, who were missing two key players, Rodney Stuckey and Aaron Brooks. Leading the Bulls' offense was Dough McDermott who posted 23 points. Seasoned player Rajon Rondo, who was the latest addition to the team's offensive firepower, added 13 assists, according to Chicago Tribune.

The Bulls' offense was impeccable that head coach Fred Hoiberg decided to sit down all the five starters during the game's fourth quarter. All starters, except Rondo, posted double figures in points. Jimmy Butler had 16 points, Taj Gibson had 12 points, Robin Lopez had 12 points, and Dwayne Wade added 14 points.
The Pacers, who lost to the Brooklyn Nets on Friday, started Jeff Teague, Monta Ellis, Thaddeus Young, Paul George, and Myles Turner. Leading the pack in offense were George and Turner scoring 20 points each. Young added 10 points, 5 rebounds, and three assists. Off the bench, Glenn Robinson III and Joe Young each have 11 points.
Despite being new to the team, both Rondo and Wade have found their respective roles in the team's dynamics. Butler and Gibson are providing the necessary leadership to keep the team's offense on the go. Although it is still too early in the season, many sports analysts agree that the Bulls are a team to watch out for.
