NBA betting tip: Heat at Nets

NBA Betting Tips

Miami Heat at Brooklyn Nets

Saturday, Jan. 11th - Live on ESPN Australia at 12.10pm

The Miami Heat travel to Brooklyn to take on the Nets and this game has a few interesting sup plots.

In a first for the NBA, the Heat and the Nets will wear jerseys with nicknames on the back of them. This game will probably change nothing for the play offs, but with the jerseys and the hype, there is a bit of a ‘media circus’ around the game. Especially when you consider it’s a prime time Friday Night TV game.

There are a number of key players still injured and they won’t take part in this game. This includes Net’s star Deron Williams and Brook Lopez. The Heat have Oden out, along with Chalmers and Battier.

The Net’s look like they will struggle here under the attention of the media, while the Heat should thrive despite those few outs. Happy to take Miami at the line in a low scoring game.

Bet On: Miami -5.0

Bet On: Total Game Points Under 194.5
