Small time bettor here with a hunch (haven't been so spot on lately although)
Miami Heat First half ML<<
I see motivational factors for both sides here. In what looks to be a series deciding game,both teams will come to play. I see public DOWN on Mia, which to me is where they can thrive. The "injuries" to James and Bosh, Indiana's success in Miami this series, people down on Wade's productivity, Role players havent really shown up for Mia (Allen, Battier, Chalmers). In all respect i understand the concerns. Indiana is playing good ball rebounding, defensively, and post offense( getting to the line a bunch also). This is the time IF ANY, where Miami must show their true colors. Taking game 1 in what can be called a 3 game series at this point , is extremely crucial. I think Heat will come out of the gate strong here, and if history repeats itself, they will finish strong after a loss (8-0) First half seems like the best spot in my opinion ( like a-holes everyone has one). Thoughts? Insights?
