(My Sportsbook) - The Chicago Bulls hope to wrap up the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference tonight when they welcome the Toronto Raptors to the United Center in the season finale for both clubs.

The Bulls need a win or a Philadelphia loss in Cleveland to earn the sixth seed in the East and a date with Southeast Division champion Orlando in the first round of the postseason. In the unlikely event Chicago loses tonight and the reeling 76ers win, the Bulls will drop to seventh and face the defending world champion Boston Celtics in the opening round.

Chicago continued its late season surge in Auburn Hills on Monday by winning its fifth straight game when Ben Gordon hit the go-ahead bucket with 14.6 seconds left in regulation and Derrick Rose scored 11 of his 24 points in the fourth quarter to help the Bulls to a 91-88 victory over the Detroit Pistons.

Gordon finished with 19 points and Rose doled out eight assists. Joakim Noah recorded 11 points and 13 rebounds, while Tyrus Thomas added 13 and eight in the Bulls' fifth straight win.

A victory on Wednesday would give the Chicago its first six-game winning streak since taking seven in a row from November 25-December 8, 2006.

The Raptors, meanwhile, are also coming off a win after Chris Bosh scored 25 and hit a three-pointer with under 10 seconds left, and grabbed 15 rebounds to lead Toronto past Washington, 97-96, at the Verizon Center on Monday.

Shawn Marion added 25 points and 15 boards for the Raptors, who won their second straight contest.

Raptors big man Andrea Bargnani is questionable tonight after missing Monday's win with a sore left heel.

Toronto has won three of its last four games in the Windy City after losing in its previous eight trips to Chicago. The Bulls are an impressive 28-12 at the United Center this season.
