Bulls will feel the Heat in NBA playoffs

There wasn't much motivation for the Miami Heat last weekend, when the Chicago Bulls came to town. The Heat will certainly be considerably more excited for the Bulls' next visit to South Florida.

Chicago beat Toronto 127-106 on Wednesday night to secure the No. 7 spot in the Eastern Conference Championship playoffs, meaning the Bulls will play second-seeded Miami in the opening round.

Game 1 is Saturday in Miami, with Game 2 of the best-of-seven series expected to be played either Monday or Tuesday.
