The Miami Heat is again on the road, this time the East champions are heading to Texas to meet the Dallas Mavericks at their American Airlines Center. The Heat are looking solid these days, while the Mavs are having problems.
Miami Heat News
The Heat has seven wins in the last eight appearances, with that sole loss coming at Mile High against the Nuggets, 103-97. It was a tight failure, and we have to say that Miami didn’t disappoint at all. The majority of the victories were on the road, with the Heat winning in Milwaukee, Philly, Sacramento, and New Orleans, for example.
Following the match in Denver, the unit was back home in Florida, where they met the Utah Jazz, 126-120, and the Detroit Pistons, 118-110. Jimmy Butler was very good in these two events, delivering 37 and 26 points, respectively.
Dallas Mavericks News
After seven wins in a row, the Mavs have lost their grip, posting five defeats in six events. Even though Luka plays one hell of a basketball and is maybe the most dominant player in the league at the moment, his team is not looking like a contender for a deep playoff run. The instability is making the Mavs look like nothing more than a playoff team.
Luka has seven straight 30+ point performances, but there isn’t any support coming from his teammates. He is currently the first scorer in the NBA, with 34.6 points per game, third in assists 9.8, and has 9.0 boards each night. These stats put him in the MVP talks, but his team’s results aren’t.
Miami Heat vs. Dallas Mavericks Betting Tip
The Heat is a very tough team, and knowing their mentality, they are always motivated when playing against big stars. Luka is one such player right now. His Mavs are on the downhill, and we’ve seen the Slovenian frustrated against the Pacers. The line for the totals is 231.5 points, and for us, that’s under, regardless of the Mavs’ high octane offense.Betting Tip: Under 231.5
