L.A. Lakers vs Miami 9:00 ET
Heat (+) over Lakers- I could not have more off-base than what I predicted in Game 3 as Miami showed their grit and took it to the Lakers from start to finish winning 115-104. The Heat are brimming with confidence as Jimmy Butler's 'triple-double' wasn't enough of a statement until he boasts 'we won't lose again!' Los Angeles may have something to say about that as they have yet to lose back-to-back games and that may be so but they are 2-8-1 ATS after an ATS loss. Now, like when I hear a pitcher or quarterback say 'it's just another game' when it is more than just another game. The last to say it was Lamar Jackson before the Ravens against Kansas City on Monday night and he got smoked as they always do. In the same vein James says after his eight turnover performance, 'We're not concerned'....he should be! Miami is 14-4 ATS in their last 18 games overall. Enough for me! Take the HEAT!
