The Bulls were hoping to build on their thrilling comeback victory over the Clippers on Thursday, but instead they got their asses absolutely whooped again by the top-seeded Heat at the United Center on Saturday night. Miami started out on fire and kept it going all game long in a 127-109 destruction of a Bulls team that proves time and time again to be fraudulent against elite competition.
Zach LaVine and the Bulls got off to a hot start, but the Heat were even hotter and stayed hot all night. Jimmy Butler led seven Heat players in double figures with 22 points, seven rebounds and six assists.
