Teams Preview

Chicago Bulls

Chicago Bulls are coming off a 113-110 road loss against the Indiana Pacers in their last match. This is the 2nd loss in a row for the Bulls after they went down 118-129 against the Lakers at the United Center. 

Against the Pacers, the Bulls started well leading the game by 9 points in the first quarter, but the lead was cut short to five points at half time. Then the Bulls again took the lead to 9 points at the end of 3rd quarter. An abysmal shooting performance and defensive lapses in the 4th where they scored 25 and conceded 37 points led to the loss. 

In the last five games the Bulls are averaging 120 points per game, while conceding 115.6 points per game. While their recent home record has been good where they won five of the last six matches played at the United Center scoring 124.5 points per game. 

Miami Heat

Miami Heat head into this contest on the back off a 124-133 loss against the Orlando Magic at home. They were leading by 9 points at half time but a second half surge from the Magic didn't allow the Heat to comeback into the game. 

The Heat gave up too many shots from mid range and in the paint where they were outscored 58-72 in two point shots. Bam Adebayo scored 22 points, 12 rebounds double-double, while Norman Powell chipped in with 22 points. 

Simone Fontecchio coming off the bench scored 23 points, while Jaime Jaquez Jr (13 points) and Dru Smith (13 points), both contributing well. It's those little defensive lapses that the Heat will look to correct against the Bulls. 

The Heat have been in good form recently winning three of the last five matches scoring 124.4 points per game and allowing 119 points per game. While they won three of the last four away games scoring 120.3 and allowing 120.2 points per game.
