Expert picks and predictions for Tuesday’s Heat vs. Warriors game

NBC sports betting best bets

Drew Dinsick (@whale_capper) expects the home team to cover: Golden State -9
“Hard to imagine a worse spot in the entire 82-game schedule for the Heat, on a back-to-back after a double OT game and without their top player. Will add in-game if there’s a last-gasp effort from Miami in 1H .”

Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) doesn’t expect much from Bam Adebayo and the Heat: Bam Adebayo Under 30.5 PRA (-115) and Warriors -9 (-110)
“The Miami Heat are shaky right now, and Jimmy Butler’s comments and actions are likely a reason why. Miami has lost three straight to Indiana, Utah, plus Sacramento, and is in a bad travel spot. Miami is in the second game of a six -game road trip west and lost in OT to the Kings last night, so this trip couldn’t come at a worse time.”

Brad Thomas (@MrBradThomas) also endorses Warriors: Golden State -9
“Steph Curry is dropping 40 tonight. Without Jimmy on the floor, their defensive acumen isn’t very high. I fanned the Heat yesterday expecting to bet on them tonight. However, they went to Double OT in the first part of their long road trip. It’s an easy fade.”
