We're on a nice roll right now & it's on to Friday & the weekend we go. We fell short with our Free Forum NBA Player Prop last night. Feel free to comment & all the best to everyone this weekend.
MIAMI -2 AT NEW ORLEANS (196)
This is the 2nd and final meeting between these clubs tonight. The Pelicans won AT Miami last week as 2 pt dogs. So, the Heat do have payback on their mind tonight. Both clubs missing key pieces. Of course Bosh is done for the season with his blood clot. The Pelicans are without 3 of their top players until mid March, in A. Davis, Holiday, and Anderson. Both of these teams are battling for one of the final playoff spots in their respective conferences. The Heat sit as the #7 seed currently, while the Pelicans are battling PHX and chasing OKC for that final #8 seed in the extremely deep Western Conference. New Orleans is looking for their 4th straight win & tonight is their final game of a 3 game home-stand. They're coming off a (102-96) win over Brooklyn on Wednesday night. The Heat are coming off an OT win AT Orlando (93-90) on Wednesday night. Miami has won 4 of L/6 games SU. However, taking a closer look at those 4 wins, shows us they were all vs the bottom feeder teams in the league (Knicks twice, Orlando, and Philly). The OVER has cashed in 7 straight times when the Pelicans play on 1 day of rest. The Heat have failed to cover their L/5 games when they play on 1 day of rest. The 'very early money' is fairly split for now & I do have a smaller personal play on the PELICANS +2.
