Coup’s Takeaways: HEAT Cruise In Chicago With A Near-Perfect Offensive Showing

1. Zach LaVine kept his team around for a bit with his typically impressive shotmaking, but the Chicago Bulls just had nothing for Miami on the defensive end as the HEAT took a 19-point lead through three quarters. The Bulls had zero answers, and as much as you would want to credit the HEAT for playing as well as they did – and they played plenty well – this is also becoming the story of Chicago’s season as they came into the game 4-19, with a -11.0 per 100 possessions Net Rating, against the Top 10 team in point differential.
