Miami Heat Form
Miami is heading into this game after a defeat in Minnesota. Moreover, this team has suffered three defeats in a row and that face a hard time in the battle for a playoff spot.
The Heat entered Saturday ninth in the Eastern Conference,. However, they are only one game behind the Nets and Pistons, two teams that are placed on the final two playoff spots. This is a good team but it will be hard for them to get into the playoffs.
On the offensive side of the game, the Heat are scoring an average of 105.6 points per game. Therefore, this record is the 26th in the league in scoring. Also, the Heat have an average of 46.2 rebounds per game combined with 24.2 assists per night.
On the defensive side of the game, Miami concedes an average of 105.8 points per game. Therefore this record is enough for the 3rd spot in the league in scoring defence.
Toronto Raptors
It seems that the Raptors will finish on the second spot in the Eastern Conference. Moreover, the surprising defeat in the game against the Hornets come at the wrong time as the Bucks are unstoppable right now. Anyway, this is a good team led by Kahwi Leonard and it will be interesting to see what they can go do in the playoff this season.
On the offensive side of the game, the Raptors are scoring an average of 114.4 points per game. Therefore, this record is the 7th in the league in scoring. Also, the Raptors have an average of 45.1 rebounds per game combined with 24.5 dimes per night.
On the defensive side of the game, Chicago concedes an average of 108.4 points per game. Therefore this record is enough for the 9th spot in the league in scoring defence.
Prediction
The Heat is not playing well at the moment. It will be hard for them to get a playoff spot, especially because their form is just not enough. On the other side, the Raptors need to bounce back after the defeat. They are the better team and they play at home. Therefore, I take Toronto in this one.
