LiontipsBrooklyn vs Miami. Prediction and Betting Tips for NBA
Command Analysis
Brooklyn Nets put themselves in a tricky position - they are currently 8th in the Eastern Conference. It is enough to qualify for play-in, but Nets surely expected a better result before the start of the season. Steve Nash's men had ambitions to stay at the top, but they were unable to do that.
The Nets lost too many games recently. Kevin Durant's injury surely affected team's performance. But leader of the Nets will probably be available for the upcoming match, so team's offense will probably be more dangerous for the opponent.
Miami's four game winning streak came to its abrupt end in the previous match. The Heat were unable to beat Memphis Grizzlies at Fiserv Forum. Eric Spoelstra's men lost the game by only one point (119:120).
Heat are currently at the top of the Eastern Conference. They have won 41 of 63 in this season. Miami recorded the major part of their victories at home, but Heat are performing great on the road as well. They lost only 10 away matches in the current season.

Tip and bets
We don't believe that Kevin Durant will make a significant impact on Brooklyn's performance. He is unlikely to win the game for the Nets all by himself. Heat won two matches against the Nets in the current season, so we are expecting another victory from Eric Spoelstra's lads.
Our prediction - Miami to win the match (Including OT)
In the previous head-to-head match opponents scored 226 points combined. We are expecting another high-scoring game today. Hosts should be able to score more points with Durant on the floor.
Our second bet is on total over 217,5 points
