On Friday, an exciting Heat-Bulls awaits us in Miami. In this game, two teams that have disappointed this season will play for life or death. At stake, the last place in the playoffs in the East. For this, Chicago eliminated Toronto today in a match played in Canada.

Toronto handled the situation very well until it all went wrong. They went to halftime to win 58-47. He came to have a maximum advantage of 19 points on the scoreboard. He was leading 12 to 10 minutes from the end. But Chicago reacted in time. And with a 4-16 streak, they went from an 87-75 loss to 91-91. The ending was thrilling.

To this end, the free has decided. As in the whole game. The free kick was a nightmare for the locals. They missed 18! And his best man in the game exemplified this nightmare like few others. He finished 5 out of 11 in free practice Pascal Siakam. And with 12 seconds left and 104-107 on the scoreboard, the end of the crossroads has come. Siakam had 3 free to match. He put the first. But he missed the next two. And immediately after Nikola Vucevic he closed out the free practice match to the frustration of the home fans.

Everything changed in the last quarter. With Zach LaVine as the undisputed leader of his team. And with the great help of Alex Caruso And DeMar DeRozan.

The 24-37 of the last quarter left the result at 105-109. Number of bulls in the last quarter: 63.2% from the field and only one turnover. And fix the tear the team had in the triple. In the first 3 quarters, 3 out of 19 in triples; in the last, 4 out of 7.

The Bulls won to survive. They did it with 39 points from LaVine. He scored 13 in the last quarter. And no less than 30 points after the break. The MVP of the evening.

DeRozan had 23 points and 7 rebounds against his former team. Nikola Vucevic had 14 plus 13 rebounds. Coby White He shone in the first part. And Alex Caruso in the last quarter.

The Bulls suffered from the rebound. But this inferiority in boards was ultimately not fatal.

Toronto fizzled on defense late in the game. And all night, his second unit didn’t bring anything. But his fight with freedom was a tragedy. A fatal tragedy.

Siakam finished with 32 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists. Fred Van Vleet he had 26 points, 12 rebounds and 8 assists. There were 7 triples. AND Scottie Barnes added 19 points and 10 rebounds. At Toronto’s last game. There will be no playoffs for the Canadians.
