Brooklyn at Miami

The Miami heat are a year older, and have looked it more often than what we have seen the past two seasons. The Heat are just 10-9 in their last 19 games as we head down the stretch. Brooklyn was supposed to be a serious contender this year with a lot of roster-improving offseason deals, but the pieces did not fit together early and so they struggled. The Nets have put things together by going 9-3 over their last 12 games, and two of the losses have been in overtime, so they have won or been in just about every game over the last month or so. This will be a statement game for the Nets to show that they belong, and they have been making a lot of them lately as they are 8-0 ATS in their last eight vs. a winning team. Take the points and play on Brooklyn.
