The team is averaging 109.1 points on 46.2 percent shooting and allowing 104.4 points on 44.3 percent shooting, they are the #5 defense in the NBA.
BETTING TRENDS
Dallas are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games.
Dallas are 3-9-1 ATS in their last 13 games against Miami.
Miami are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games.
Miami are 5-1 SU in their last 6 games when playing at home against Dallas.
Prediction
Tyler Herro has been ruled out and Butler is questionable. The Heat are 8-3 without Herro this season, so it's not so bad. Both teams have play great defense buth the Mavericks struggle more offensively. The Heat are one of the best teams playing at home with a 19-6 record and they win by and average of 6.5 points at home. Give me the Heat as long as Jimmy Butler plays.
PICK: Heat -2.5 (-110)
