Bulls 89, Heat 78
The Chicago Bulls used a second-half surge to erase a 19-point
half-time deficit and rally for a victory over the Miami Heat.
The Bulls, without Jimmy Butler, went on a 39-8 run from
half-time to the early stages of the fourth quarter.
Chicago (47-32) moved into sole possession of third place in the
Eastern Conference after falling into a tie with the Toronto
Raptors following Wednesday's loss to the Orlando Magic.
The Heat (35-44) are now 1-1/2 games behind the Brooklyn Nets
and Boston Celtics for the seventh and eighth spots in the East
playoff race.
Miami have three games remaining on their schedule.
