Can’t handle a muscular Eastern Conference contender? Tell that to the Chicago Bulls, after the Heat rolled to an 86-67 victory Thursday night at the United Center.

“Just another win in a long NBAseason,” Heat forward LeBron Jamessaid after another LeBron James performance, this time with 26 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists.

The winning streak is now nine, the Heat’s longest in a year and second longest in the Big Three era to a 12-game run, as the NBA quickly is running out of questions to pose to Erik Spoelstra’s team.
