Brooklyn Nets Betting Preview
The Brooklyn Nets have been in dreadful form as they’ve lost 26 of their last 31 games overall and they are now on an eight-game losing streak after falling short to the Cavaliers in a 106-102 loss on Sunday. Michael Porter Jr led the team with 26 points on 10 of 17 shooting, Danny Wolf added 23 points with nine rebounds and five assists off the bench while Nolan Traore chipped in with 17 points. As a team, the Nets shot 51 percent from the field and 11 of 32 from the 3-point line as they got off to a great start and looked to be in control after holding the Cavaliers to just 17 points in the second quarter to take a narrow lead into halftime. However, the Nets couldn’t hold off the Cavaliers and allowed them to go on a 22-12 run in the fourth quarter to fall short in the end.
Miami Heat Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Miami Heat have been in decent shape as they’ve won five of their last eight games overall and they will be eager to build some momentum after taking down the Rockets in a 115-105 upset win on Saturday. Bam Adebayo led the team with 24 points and 11 rebounds on nine of 17 shooting, Pelle Larsson added 20 points, Tyler Herro added 18 points while Jaime Jacquez Jr chipped in with 14 points. As a team, the Heat shot 50 percent from the field and 11 of 31 from the 3-point line as they struggled to find their rhythm on offense and trailed at halftime, but they were able to pick up steam and pour in 64 points in the second half thanks to their reserves who outscored the Rockets’ reserves by 31-16. The only minor blemish from the win was Simone Fontecchio who shot zero of five from the field to finish scoreless.
Brooklyn v Miami Free Prediction
The Nets should have Nic Claxton back in action but they are still missing Egor Demin who is dealing with a foot injury, while the Heat have ruled out Norman Powell and Nikola Jovic with Davion Mitchell listed as questionable. The Nets enter this contest as one of the coldest teams in the league with eight losses in a row but they were more than competitive in their narrow defeat on Sunday, but the Heat are coming into this one fresh off a solid win over the Rockets, they have home-court advantage and extra rest as their last game was on Saturday. These teams have already met once this season with the Heat winning by 106-95 on Dec 18 and I am expecting a similar result in this one with the Heat getting the win and cover at home.
