Heat vs. Bulls PicksPoint Spread Pick for Heat vs. Bulls Miami Heat -1.5 (4 Units)
The Heat have the edge in this game because they’re playing well offensively and scored over 127 points per game in their last three games, while making over 47 percent of their shots. They’ve also done a better job at the charity stripe, making over 80 percent of their free throws during that span. They rebound the ball well and grab more than 12 offensive rebounds per game on the road, which will give them more scoring chances. They also cut down their turnovers in recent games, and won’t give up many easy-scoring chances. The Bulls aren’t very good defensively, and they’re giving up more than 117 points per game at home. They’re also playing on consecutive nights and will be dealing with some fatigue, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Heat. Take Miami to cover the spread.
