Chicago Bulls vs. Miami Heat

The Chicago Bulls returned home to the United Center to face the tough Miami Heat. The last time these two teams matched up the Bulls were without Joakim Noah and the Heat were without LeBron James. This time both teams were at full strength and the Bulls pulled off a huge win over Miami 93-89. The Bulls started off slowly as they trailed at half-time 53-44, but the Bulls would use a second half rally to come back to win this game. For Miami Dwyane Wade led the way with 34 points and 8 assists, while LeBron James added 29 points and 10 rebounds. Chris Bosh was held to just 7 points on a rough 1-18 shooting night. Derrick Rose and Luol Deng had great nights for the Bulls with 26 points and 20 points respectively. Omer Asik added a team high 11 boards as well. The Bulls earned a huge win tonight and are now 39-17, which leaves them just 2 games off of their win total from a year ago and there are still 26 games to go in the season. Next for the Bulls is the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday night in Milwaukee.
