Denver at Miami

The Miami Heat were supposed to be the team to beat in the NBA this season. But they have lost a lot of games to winning teams. Now, they finally seem to be rounding into playoff form and exorcising some demons from earlier in the season as they began to figure out how to play with each other. They extracted revenge from San Antonio and Atlanta in two of their last three games. Now Denver is up for the equalizer as the Nuggets knocked-off the Heat earlier. The Heat is playing well again and have reason to pour it on here, so I'm backing Miami to cover.
