NBA Betting Preview Heat vs. Nets Predictions, Game Analysis and Picks

A clear difference is already apparent in Brooklyn. James Harden joined Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving this month. This trio could be the NBA’s most formidable. Thus far, gamblers have taken a liking to the results. Brooklyn has shown a spike in bet on NBA profits. By contrast, the Heat have been one of the NBA’s biggest disappointments. Their status as 2020 Eastern Conference champions means nothing presently. Defensively the Heat is taking too many possessions off. Coach Eric Spoelstra is not producing a strong team effort.
