The Miami Heat have a 31-11 mark on the season and don't go on long losing streaks. They have lost two in a row, and I would expect a big effort in Philly tonight. Three of the Heat's 11 losses have come in overtime, so even when they lose they have been a very tough out. The Sixers are an up-and-coming team and the Heat have taken notice as they have made statements to the Sixers in their first two matchups, winning each by 20+. The game in Philly was low-scoring with a combined 178 points, and that is because Philly plays as good on the defensive end as any team in the league at home. The Sixers have also hit a stall as they are a meager 7-11 in their last 18 games. The Heat have followed a 100-point offensive output with a 7-2 ATS mark in their next game, while the Sixers are getting beaten-up vs. teams with a winning record at 1-10 ATS in their last 11. The Heat are taking notice of opponents’ offense as they have played 7-1-1 to the UNDER when facing a team off of scoring 100+, while the Sixers have turned up the "D" after a loss at 40-18 to the UNDER in their next game. Take both Miami and the UNDER in this one.
