Tip-off is set for 7 p.m. at the United Center.
So much for the agreement forged between Tom Thibodeau and his bosses.
With Bulls starting guard Jimmy Butler still on the shelf last night due to injury, head coach Tom Thibodeau turned to an unlikely player for some help against LeBron James and the Cavaliers. That player: second-year guard Tony Snell.
"The whole city, this is home for me," Butler says.
LeBron James scored 36 points and the Cleveland Cavaliers beat Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls 114-108 in overtime on Friday night.
The Bulls wanted a "hometown discount," Butler's agent said.
"It's always good to measure up against the top teams," Pau Gasol says.
The deadline for an extension for Jimmy Butler is by 11 p.m. tonight.
Tonight's Bulls-Cavs game involves a ton talent, but it will not be indicative of either team's season.
