Heat vs Jazz Prediction

The Heat are the better team and should win, but they’re a team that plays down to their competition a lot and is on the end of a back-to-back. There’s also a chance the Heat won’t have Larsson and Powell. Furthermore, as I’ve said all season, you can make money on the Jazz. The Jazz have covered 4 straight games and are 29-24 ATS on the season. One night the Heat look like a contender in the East, and the next night they’re blowing 20-point leads and losing to bottom feeders. I don’t trust the Heat. Give me the Jazz and the points.
