I learned my lesson early in the season betting on Miami thinking the line is a trap is a losing proposition. Just keep fading Miami and padding the bankroll.

Heat didn't show up for the game versus the Warriors.....the FBI has issued an APB for the Heat from Miami to Atlanta.

Doc, I'm from Atlanta and watch almost every Hawks game. As bad as Miami is I think the ONLY reason this game is -7 and not lower is because Miami played last night and the Hawks didn't. The Atlanta Hawks and Coach Woodson are pathetic. Josh Smith is one of the worst offensive players in the league, I don't care what his stats say. Shawn Marion is going to eat him for breakfast tonight. All that being said I'd stay away from this one, far away.

the previous game was being replayed because of Shaq getting ejected early.
