Miami at Brooklyn

Premium Pick

The Brooklyn Nets rebuilt their team las season, and found their way to the playoffs. They really thought this would be their year, especially with a healthier Brook Lopez to patrol the paint. The problem is that Lopez finds himself on the sidelines once again with a lower back injury, and the Nets have yet to beat a winning team this season without him. I know Miami doesn't qualify as a winning team, but it certainly is likely that they will be before the season is over. The Heat have played well on the road at 7-6 on the season, and on the road against a team with a losing home record they are a perfect 5-0 ATS in their last five. Their track record in Brooklyn is a strong one as they are 13-6 ATS in their last 19. Make the play on Miami.

1.5 units on Miami +7.5 (-105) (risk 1.5 to return 2.93)
