The Heat have looked awfully good in this series thus far and Dwayne Wade is putting up 22 points per game thus far while dishing out 7.5 assists. Charlotte returns home and should be up for this game, but the Hornets are just 2-5 ATS in their last 7 at home and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 when playing on 2 days of rest. The veteran Heat squad should be rested with the two days and continue to click as they have early in this series. Look for Miami to pick up another win today.
