Time Announced For Miami Heat's Game Against Toronto Raptors or Chicago Bulls Friday

The Miami Heat's opponent is still unknown but they now know what time their attempt to extend the season begins.

The league announced they face the Chicago Bulls or Toronto Raptors at 7 p.m. Friday at the Kaseya Center. The game is televised on TNT. The Raptors and Bulls play tonight, with the winner advancing.

The Heat are in this position after falling to the Atlanta Hawks Tuesday.

"We'd have to stay confident," Heat forward Jimmy Butler said. "We have to know we are capable of winning, if we start out the right way and if we rebound obviously. But it's just, I don't know, shots don't go in, we foul. That's never the recipe for success with us. So come Friday, we've got to play, like, legit the exact opposite that we played [Tuesday]."

If the Heat win Friday, they face the Milwaukee Bucks in the first round at 5:30 p.m., Sunday. The game will be televised by TNT and Bally Sports Sun.

But first they must focus on Friday.

"At least we have a lot of experience," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "We've had a lot of ups and downs this season. Nothing about this season has been easy, so we're going to do this the hard way. We're going to get back to work tomorrow, regroup, put our arms around each other, get to the film and get better from this."
