    No time to sleep - EARLY SATURDAY MIAMI HEAT
    BIG PLAY:

    MIAMI pickem

    this is mostly a feeling game for me, i think the jazz are a bit overated on the road, not the same team at all than at home. they are going into dwayne wades house, early tip off at 1pm est. both teams had 2 nights off, so both should be well rested, which is good for miami and wade. both teams play sunday as well. i just think the heat can contain the jazz on the defensive side, and let wade take over in the last game situation. also, keep in mind miami did go into utah this season and beat them outright, whether utah had injuries or not (they still usually play extremely well at home).

    Was kinda feeling the Heat also. Just wish Miami hadn't won in Utah earlier this season then I would be all over Miami. Also, I'll be waiting near tip off with 60% of the people on Utah. Can go on the money line. Shall see.

        I agree with Miami no doubt, I just hate the way Miami plays when I have money on them. They usually play catch up which stresses me out. My main concern is Okur. Hopefully they put Udonis on Okur and O'Neal on Boozer, since Udonis is more mobile to chase down the 3s from the Turk

              I like Utah to win over Miami. Why because simply Utah is a better team. Miami has an easy schedule. Most of their wins have been against sorry teams. And that win over the Celtics was a fluke. The Celtics were short handed, no KG or Rondo. Utah lost in Utah to Miami this season but Boozer and Kirenkelo didn't play. And Williams had a bad game he was 4-12 from the fg and only had 5 assist. He basically had a bad game. I also think that was the time he was playing hurt. Wade only had 23, and this game I assume Kirenkelo will guard him so he will be contained. Don't be fooled play on Utah.

                Utah also won against Lakers when Kirilenko and Boozer were out, so your argument is not very convincing for me. Not trying to be condescending here(we all want to beat the books, so might as well share advices) but I think Miami and Wade's boys will take care of utah real good.

                  "Utah also won against Lakers when Kirilenko and Boozer were out"

                  So that makes Utah even more dangerous...

                    LOL @ you thinking Kirilenko can contain Wade
                    He's not nearly quick enough, if anyone is guarding him it's Brewer but Wade should still go off for a huge game.

                      If I'm not mistaken Kirilenko is one of the defensive players in the nba next to Bruce Bowen, Ron Artest, and Raja Bell. Kirilenko has long arms to contest Wades' shot. We'll let the game results speak for itself...

                        Whatever, Wade is questionable so I'm now leaning towards Utah. Even if Wade plays there is something wrong with his body.

                          You are mistaken. You are thinking about the Kirilenko of a couple of years ago. He's not nearly the same guy who used to pile up the blocks and steals.
                          And I never said anything about the result of the game. I just laughed at you for thinking that AK47 can contain Wade. I highly doubt that Jerry Sloan would put Kirilenko on Flash, because doing so would be a nightmare.

                            I'm sure brewer and williams will have a tough time containing wade. Kirilenko and Boozer will also have their hands full with Jermaine and the high flying Moon in the paint. But there are intangibles that make Utah what they are.. so I might pass here or go for utah (if wade does not play).

                              If Wade doesn't play then take the Jazz ML big. Without Wade, the Heat would be one of the worst teams in the league, just like last year.

                                News: Wade sat out his second straight practice Friday in order to rest a sore ankle and sore hip, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports.
                                Spin: Wade plays almost the entire game every night for the Heat, so coach Erik Spoelstra decided it would be helpful to have Wade rest on the last two practice days. He apparently rolled his ankle in last Wednesday's game against the Celtics. Wade is not expected to miss Saturday's game.

                                good luck today lavong! I am almost sold on miami. I think Wade is fine, the guy doesn't need practice. Doc Rivers has been doing similar things with Pierce and Allen.

                                  This will also be a very early starting time for the Jazz. 1:00 EST.

                                    Line just jumped to Miami +2. Maybe Wade is out, or someone else.

                                                      Honestly Vincepcion, I was on the Heat but felt like Kirlenko did a great job. Not talking about defending in all but he had some big baskets. I was happier than ever to see him foulout right before the first OT
