Why the Miami Heat Might Hold the Key to the Chicago Bulls’ Playoff Curse
Chicago’s starting lineup for Wednesday night’s NBA Play-In Tournament game featured Josh Giddey, Kevin Huerter and Matas Buzelis – all newcomers. The offensive style was completely changed from a season ago, with the Bulls playing up-tempo and shooting a lot of 3s.
The Bulls needed this season to be different. Yet at the end, it felt very similar to year’s past.
It was another year in the play-in tournament and another year that ended at the hands of the Miami Heat.
This marked the third straight season the Bulls lost to the Heat in the postseason, which has occurred between two teams only three times since 2010, and the other two involved LeBron James. The Indiana Pacers lost to the Miami Heat in 2012, ’13 and ’14, and the Toronto Raptors fell to the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2016, ’17 and ’18.
