Zach LaVine and his Bulls teammates made the visit to Charlotte a business trip, man-handling the Hornets by 30 points.

The Bulls have had their share of rough nights this season.

Friday definitely wasn’t one of them.

First, they took care of their own business, easily disposing of the undermanned, under-talented Charlotte Hornets 121-91 at the Spectrum Center, and then inched closer to climbing up in the play-in seedings thanks to stumbles by both Toronto and Atlanta.

With just five regular-season games left, things are about to get very interesting.

“It’s all about us at this point in the season,’’ forward Patrick Williams said of the team’s mindset after the latest victory.
