The Chicago Bulls are putting the finishing touches on their playoff push as the NBA season winds down. The team is tied with the Toronto Raptors for the third seed in the Eastern Conference with seven games left to go. They will likely end up with home court advantage in the first round of the playoffs regardless, but they undoubtedly want to be as highly seeded as possible.

Still, despite the intense fight for playoff positioning, the team is not above having a good time when they are off the court. Shooting guard Jimmy Butler recently proved as much when he serenaded Joakim Noah in the locker room.

Butler has become known a bit for some of his antics away from the court (earlier this season he explained why he thought Taylor Swift should date him), but it is his play on the court that has the Bulls and their fans salivating. Butler has been a defensive stalwart for a few seasons now, but his offensive game has blossomed this year, making him one of the best shooting guards in the league.
It is the emergence of Butler that has allowed the Bulls to position themselves nicely heading into the postseason despite yet another injury to star point guard Derrick Rose.
Rose may return in time for the playoffs, but even if he does not, this Chicago team has legitimate playoff aspirations thanks to the vast improvement Butler has made.
