By virtue of a better overall record than the Miami Heat, the Chicago Bulls earned home-court advantage for their Eastern Conference play-in game Wednesday night.
While the Bulls have won three in a row and six of seven, the Heat answered a six-game winning streak by losing four of their final six contests.
Despite winning all three meetings with Miami this season, the ninth-seeded Bulls (39-43) could be considered the underdog against the 10th-seeded Heat (37-45).

The Dallas Mavericks reached the NBA Finals last season when Luka Doncic carried an otherwise average team through the treacherous Western Conference waters.
This season, the Mavericks traded the generational star to the Los Angeles Lakers and the franchise sank for most of the second half of the season before landing the final play-in spot in the West.
No. 10 seed Dallas (39-43) now looks to take advantage of the life raft when it visits the No. 9 seed Sacramento Kings in Wednesday night's do-or-die contest.
The season is over for the loser. The winner advances to play the loser of Tuesday's contest between the No. 7 Golden State Warriors and No. 8 Memphis Grizzlies for a berth in the playoffs.
"We're two wins away from getting to the next step of our journey," Sacramento interim coach Doug Christie said.
The Kings (40-42) swept the three-game series from Dallas in the regular season, winning by 10, 1 and 24 points. Only the first matchup was in the rabid atmosphere of Sacramento.
