It’s Tuesday, February 4, and the Miami Heat (24-23) and the Chicago Bulls (21-29) are all set to square off from United Center in Chicago.
This is a game featuring one team in transition and another trying to get to a point of transition. Chicago shipped Zach LaVine west to Sacramento as they try to get their cap and draft pick situations in order. Game 1 without LaVine was a 127-119 loss to Detroit Sunday in Motown. Coby White scored 22 in a losing effort for the Bulls. Miami is working hard to unload their disgruntled and still suspended star, Jimmy Butler prior to this week’s trade deadline. Miami won Saturday in San Antonio 105-103. It was their third win in their last four games. Bam Adebayo had 30 points and 12 boards in the win over Wemby and co.
The Heat are currently 11-13 on the road with a point differential of 0, while the Bulls have a 5-5 record in their last ten games at home.
