Miami have only four games left in their regular season, with their games against the Bulls and Toronto Raptors as their remaining matches against playoff-headed teams. Their last two games are against the Orlando Magic and Philadelphia 76ers.
Meanwhile, the Bulls are fourth in the East and have already secured their playoff spot.
Unfortunately, they have lost three of their last four matches with their most recent a 105-103 loss to the Magic. On the bright side, star guard Derrick Rose returned to play for the first time since his lengthy spell due to injury.
Playing a bit-part on the game, Rose's rust was evident as he only scored nine points while shooting 3-of-9 from the field. He was limited to only under 20 points in the game but he contributed with two rebounds and two assists.
With only four games left in their regular season, Rose will use this time to shake off the rust in time for the post-season.
They have met twice this season, with both teams getting one win each. Ironically, the road teams have won in their matches, with both matches ending in double-digit leads for the victors.
