Thursday’s NBA Prediction
DENVER, CO (TheSpread) – The Denver Nuggets host the Miami Heat on Thursday night in the NBA. Here is a breakdown of my pick for this game.
Miami is 30-10 on the season and 15-6 on the road. The Heat have won 9 of their last 10 games. Denver is 21-16 on the season and 16-4 at home. The Nuggets have won just 5 of their last 10 games.
Oddsmakers from online sportsbook Sportsbook.com have released their odds for this game and they have made the Heat a 2.5-point favorite at Denver. The over/under total has been set at 205 points. Here are some trends to consider and my pick for tonight’s game:
Miami Heat at Denver Nuggets, 10:30PM ET (View Matchup)
The favorite has covered the spread in 5 of the last 7 games played between these two teams. Denver is just 4-16-2 ATS in their last 22 games against the Eastern Conference while Miami is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a failed cover. My pick tonight is with Miami as the Heat is coming of a bit of an embarrassing loss and will be refocused against a Denver team in turmoil.
