The Bulls’ game has been completely out of whack lately. However, this season, the Chicago Bulls have never lost more than five games in a row. Now is the time to break their four-game losing streak against the Heat.
The Chicago Bulls matches’ have been quite productive lately. The Heat averaged 111 points in home games, while the Bulls scored 114 – away. In their last meeting, the teams managed to surpass the 225-point mark.
The Miami Heat has stabilised its game and has not lost a single game in their last four games, which is a source of joy to Miami fans. The Heat are currently in 7th place in their conference with a plus-1 win-loss ratio.
Tyler Herro has been incredible, scoring 76 points in the last two games. This relatively young guard is in fiery form. Jimmy Butler, who was the top scorer in the last game with 26 points, is also on form.
The Miami Heat has won four of their last five head-to-head games against the Chicago Bulls, which bodes very well for the upcoming game as well.
The Heat is averaging 108.1 points per game (110.3 at home). In their only face-off of this season, they scored 108 points. They have scored 111 or fewer points in seven of their last eight games.
The Chicago Bulls have started to lose again and have not won a single game in the last four. True, in two games out of four, the Bulls lost only in overtime, but that is little consolation for them.
DeRozan spoke in the most unhappy way possible from the 150 points conceded from the Minnesota Timberwolves in the last game they lost. That said, the Bulls’ main star continues to score under thirty points every game and is dragging his club almost single-handedly closer to the middle of the table at least.
So far, the Chicago Bulls have won 11 games and lost 18. This allows them to count on just 11th place in the East. The Bulls have only won their last head-to-head game against their upcoming rivals out of the five meetings they have played.
In our opinion, the teams will take to the field with the following line-ups:
Miami Heat: Kyle Lowry – Tyler Herro – Jimmy Butler – Caleb Martin – Bam Adebayo.
Chicago Bulls: Alex Caruso – Zach LaVine – DeMar DeRozan – Patrick Williams – Nikola Vucevic.
Omer Yurtseven (Out), Gabe Vincent (Out), Jimmy Butler (Day-to-day), Caleb Martin (Day-to-day), Dewayne Dedmon (Day-to-day) and Udonis Haslem (Day-to-day) are listed as injured for the Miami Heat.
Lonzo Ball (Out) and Javonte Green (Day-to-day) are listed as injured for the Chicago Bulls.
The fixture will be played at FTX Arena (19.600) in Miami, Florida, USA.
This starting whistle will sound on the 21st of December, 2022, at 00:30 UK Time.
