It is hard to believe that just a few short years ago the Washington Wizards started the season at 0-12. This team has been built quickly, and bigger things are yet to come. The Wizards have started the season at 10-5. The Heat welcomed back Dwayne Wade, and he immediately contributed 27 points vs. the Knicks, but the Heat have been a half court team that still plays strong defense. And despite Wade's return, they manged just 86 points vs. the Knicks, and it was their seventh straight game under 100 points. The Heat have held 11 of 16 opponents to less than 100 as the defense is still their calling card. John Wall has shot just 37% over his last four games for Washington, and Nene may miss this game, so I see a half court game played on the defensive end here. the Heat has been UNDER the total in nine of their 13 games on the season. Make the play on the UNDER in this one.
