Heat vs. Rockets: Prediction:
Take the Heat. This feels like too many points. I know the Heat are on a back-to-back and without Butler, but this team continues to play hard. Herro has been playing at a high level and they still have young talent on the roster. Give me the Heat with the points.
NBA BETTING PREDICTION: Heat +8.5
