1.88Tip and bets
Miami is not living up to the fans' expectations in the current championship. The Heat is not playing very consistently and risks not getting into the playoffs directly. With such a roster, one should not expect brilliant results. Brooklyn will even miss the play-in. Spoelstra charges will have to achieve a victory over an opponent weakened by injuries.
Our prediction is a Miami victory with a handicap of (-7.5) points including overtime for 1.76
Bet on individual total
Miami will put on the court an almost optimal lineup. With all the leaders on the court, the team from Florida shows decent efficiency this season. The average score is 110.6. And in away games it is a little lower - 109.2. And this time the Heat will be able to load the opponent basket decently.
Our prediction is Miami individual total over 110.5 points including overtime for 2.03
First half bet
Miami has won the first half of its last six games out of eight against Brooklyn. The Sunshine State basketball players will start the game against the Nets in a not very good mood after an unsuccessful trip to Milwaukee. There is no doubt that they will try to achieve victory in order to rehabilitate themselves in front of their fans. The players of Spoelstra team will show who is the boss on the court from the first minutes of the match and seize the initiative.
Our prediction is Miami win in the first half of the game for 1.41
