The Heat (-250) should win outright, but they are too expensive to take on the money, especially short 2 key options on offense.<\/p>\n BET BULLS +6.5 (-115).<\/p>\n The Heat, without Powell and Herro, will struggle to separate themselves by enough to cover. Miami is just 2-4 in games when Powell sits this season. The Heat are 1-2 ATS in their previous 3 home games as well.<\/p>\n The Bulls have been on fire offensively and have scored at least 110 points in 7 straight games. They have covered in 2 straight games as an underdog of 5 or greater. Back BULLS +6.5 (-115).<\/p>\n BET UNDER 233.5 (-110).<\/p>\n The players in street clothes are too much to overlook here. Two of the Bulls\u2019 top 3 scoring options are questionable, and the other has been ruled out. They\u2019ve gone Under in 4 of their last 5 games.<\/p>\n The Heat are 1-2 O\/U in their last 3 contests, holding 2 of those foes to 113 points or fewer. Take UNDER 233.5 (-110).<\/p>\n For more sports betting picks and tips, check out SportsbookWire.com<\/a> and BetFTW<\/a>.<\/p>\n Follow SportsbookWire on Twitter\/X<\/a> and like us on Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n Access more NBA coverage:<\/p>\n HoopsHype<\/a> | Celtics Wire<\/a> | Nets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Rockets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Sixers Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Thunder Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Warriors Wire<\/a>\u00a0| LeBron Wire<\/a> |\u00a0Rookie Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0List Wire<\/a><\/p>\n Our team of savvy editors independently handpicks all recommendations.
