Playoffs On the Line, Heat Culture is Real, Bulls Still Top 5 in Merch Sales, and Other Bulls Bullets

What to Watch For

  • I said prior to the Hawks game, I wanted to see Coby White show out on the national stage in a postseason game. He did that and more against the Hawks dropping a career-high 42 points on 15-21 shooting. He was the best player on the floor. If he’s the best player on the floor again tonight, the Bulls will likely win again.
  • The Heat are banged up, as everyone knows by now. No Jimmy Butler and no Terry Rozier for Miami. Tyler Herro is dangerous and was very good against Philly, he’ll be the top assignment defensively. Miami is still a very solid and very well-coached team, they’ll be ready to play tonight even without two of their best players. Just because they’re shorthanded doesn’t mean the Bulls come into this one any less focused than they were at home against Atlanta.
  • Alex Caruso is very likely to play for Chicago, but I am interested to see how healthy he is. He returned against Atlanta, but clearly, that foot was still bothering him. If he’s not at full strength, the Bulls will have their work cut out for them defensively even with Jimmy Butler and Terry Rozier not in the lineup for Miami.
