Tonight, the Chicago Bulls may clinch the National Basketball Association playoffs with a win against the Seattle SuperSonics. Chicago is gearing up for the game with enthusiasm --- and with some trepidation. The last two times the Bulls won championships, the city endured looting and some rioting. NPR's Edward Lifson reports that this time the city, the Bulls management and local merchants are doing what they can to prevent and minimize any looting that may follow the game.
