TV: TNT

Radio: WMVP 1000-AM

Update: Everyone’s favorite star alliance is back in town. The first time the Heat visited the United Center on Jan. 15, LeBron James was hurt and the game became an all-Chicago shootout between Derrick Rose (34 points) and Dwyane Wade (33 points). Wade hit 3 late 3-pointers to give the Heat a 1-point lead before Kyle Korver’s 3-pointer with 25 seconds left won it for the Bulls. This time Mike Miller (ear infection) is out for Miami. The Heat (42-15) has won 11 of its last 12 games.
