Miami Heat (40-34) vs Brooklyn Nets (39-34)
Saturday, March 25, 2023 at 8:00 pm
At 8:10 pm, our selection is on the Miami Heat minus the points over Brooklyn. The Nets (39-34) and Heat (40-34) are in a tight battle for playoff seeding. But the Nets are on a 5-game losing streak, and that doesn't bode well for them tonight. Indeed, in the final 10 games of a season, in match-ups between winning teams with win percentages below .575, teams off back-to-back losses have covered just 16% over the past 25 seasons. Even better: the Heat are 9-0 ATS as a revenge-minded favorite of -1.5 (or more) points vs. winning foes. Take Miami minus the points.
