MIAMI — The old guard of the Miami Heat wasn't what supplied the fireworks during a 106-98 win over the Chicago Bulls Thursday.
It was Josh Richardson who added to his growing dunk reel. It was Hassan Whiteside who made a how'd-he-do-that block and grabbed some even more remarkable rebounds. Turner Sports sideline reporter Craig Sager played a game called "Sager or Sofa" that was every bit as miraculous as it sounds.
And Bulls sophomore Doug McDermott supplied the hit of the night with a third-quarter takedown of Whiteside that drew both a flagrant-1 foul and some unexpected praise—and poise—from the 7-footer.
