With gritty wins on back-to-back nights, the Bulls opened a little breathing room in the 10th-place playoff position.

“Obviously, the game winner against Indiana and the game winner against ( [Sacramento](https://theathletic.com/nba/team/sac-kings/)). He earned that reputation of being tough, being vocal, doing everything that he brings to the table, and it shows.” “A different type of leadership,” DeRozan said.

[the list of players](https://www.basketball-reference.com/friv/teammates_and_opponents.fcgi?pid_select=Patrick%20Beverley&pid=beverpa01&idx=players&type=t) he’s played with. “Consistent voice. [Miami](https://theathletic.com/nba/team/heat/) on Saturday, the Bulls are 7-4 since Beverley signed as a free agent last month. It carries over from there.” Beverley helped set the tone with early hustle, diving out of bounds to save a loose ball before recovering and keeping a possession alive with a scrappy offensive rebound on the same trip. “The man does everything,” DeRozan said. A simple pass or two and the ball would find Beverley alone.

CHICAGO (AP) — DeMar DeRozan scored 24 points to lead a balanced Bulls offense and Chicago held off a late surge by Miami to beat the Heat 113-99 on ...

The Heat were in the early stages of a 15-0 run during a six-minute stretch. "This is the plan for this week," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. Beverley had to leave briefly midway through the first quarter after claiming he got kicked on a jump shot by Jimmy Butler. Chicago nearly blew all of a 27-point lead after Nikola Vucevic converted a 3-point play with slightly more than 10 minutes left in the third quarter. They didn't need to rely heavily on DeRozan, who scored 49 points in 52 minutes against the Timberwolves or LaVine (39 in 47). Coby White made four 3-pointers and finished with 18 points, Zach LaVine also had 18 and Patrick Beverley added 17 as the Bulls shot 56.3% (45 for 80) from the field overall, including 17 for 34 from 3-point range.

They didn’t need to rely heavily on DeRozan, who scored 49 points in 52 minutes against the Timberwolves or LaVine (39 in 47). Before we knew it, we surrendered 70 (in the first half).” Chicago nearly blew all of a 27-point lead after Nikola Vucevic converted a 3-point play with slightly more than 10 minutes left in the third quarter. “No matter how well I shoot it, I think it’s the look of me that people want to leave me open.

“We only got 10 games left in the season,” Adebayo said. 9 Toronto Raptors and four games ahead of the No. 7 Heat are two games ahead of the No. Zeller is expected to slide back into the backup center role when he returns from injury in the coming days. The seventh through 10th-place teams in each conference participate in the play-in tournament. The Heat also fell to 15-12 this season against teams currently with losing records. The Heat is taking a cautious approach with Lowry, who turns 37 on March 25. The last time Chicago swept its season series with Miami was in the 2009-10 campaign. Chicago outscored Miami 51-30 from three-point range to negate the Heat’s 19-6 edge at the free-throw line and 19-5 edge in second-chance points. So we just got to get into the ball, contest every shot and without a doubt play a lot harder.” Five takeaways from the Miami Heat’s 113-99 loss to the Chicago Bulls (33-37) on Saturday night at United Center open a quick but important two-game trip. The Bulls closed the first quarter with a 14-point lead before entering halftime ahead 70-45 behind their best offensive half of the season.

I just got a Coach that believes in me and understands what I bring to the game,” he said. “I guess we’re even now.” “We came in understanding this was a must-need win after a double OT game. We wanted to throw the first punch. “This was a professional win,” Beverley said. “I just love his presence, his competitiveness,” coach Billy Donovan said. The Bulls placed six players in double figures, with DeRozan tying his season-high of 10 assists. When you have a coach like that who believes in you, you don’t want to let him down. Even more notable was not blinking in the face of adversity when the Heat made its inevitable run. He has played with Hall of Fame players who know how to play the game. It gets the crowd going,” DeMar DeRozan said of the sequence. We got to be better.”
