Heat vs Raptors Prediction
The Raptors and Heat probably enjoyed the long layoff, as they’re both riding the struggle bus right now. The difference is the Heat have shown us more to this point, and they’re at home where they’re 10-3 SU. The Raptors have failed to cover 9 of their last 10 games and haven’t covered a game since November 24.
The Raptors have had some scoring issues lately, which includes being held under 100 points in 2 of their last 6 games. The Heat haven’t had that pace and high scoring since the return of Herro, but at home, this feels like a get right spot for Miami. I’ll lay the somewhat reasonable number.
