The Miami Heat rallied from eight points down heading into the fourth quarter on Wednesday, May 15, holding the short-handed Chicago Bulls to just 14 fourth-period points for a 94-91 win in Game 5 of their Eastern Conference semifinal series.

Robinson averaged 13.1 points and 4.4 assists per game for Chicago this season, playing in all 82 games and starting 23 of them. But it’s been in the playoffs where Robinson has been special.

The Chicago Bulls melted down in Game 2 of their Eastern Conference semifinal series with the Miami Heat on Wednesday, May 8, and the result was historic. Miami’s 115-78 win was the most lopsided postseason win in Heat franchise history, topping a 99-64 victory over the Orlando Magic in Game 1 of a first-round series on April 24, 1997. It was also the most lopsided playoff loss ever for the Bulls. Three times previously, Chicago had lost by 26 points in the playoffs—April 1, 1971, to the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference...

“God blessed me with a lot of heart and no height and I’ll take that any day.” Nate Robinson, out of breath with stitches clearly visible in his swollen lip, delivered one of many memorable quotes from the Chicago Bulls’ 2012-13 season. But this one also embodied the spirit of the team, explained why the Bulls have continued to shock people and demonstrated the exact reason Chicago needs to re-sign this remarkably undersized warrior to a multi-year deal. After leaving Game 1 of the Eastern Conference semifinals...

The Chicago Bulls defeated the Miami Heat 93-86 in Game 1 of their Eastern Conference Semifinal series on Monday night behind a big win in the Joakim Noah vs. Chris Bosh matchup. The Bulls got strong games from Nate Robinson and Jimmy Butler as a result.

Bosh isn’t a true center and we’re all aware of that. Because of that, he’s often able to take advantage of matchups...

The Chicago Bulls vs. Miami Heat series seems like a mismatch on paper. The NBA playoffs are often about catching an opponent at the right time.
