I think Miami is just overrated because they are a team that is consistent in the playoffs. So, we haven't seen their struggles this season.
I hope they won't be too tired because they need to travel after the game, and the Heat are just fresh at home, practicing how to beat the Bulls.
If we trust the Bulls here, might as well another moneyline bet.
It did take a lot from the Bulls to win at the road, very hostile environment but they seems to be focus that night. Miami is playing again in their homecourt and if they lost this one, obviously it's time for them to rebuild. They haven't got close to the success when they went to finals in the bubble against the Lakers.
But if we look at the numbers, if I'm not mistaken, the Bulls has swept the Heat.
So that alone is a big factor in this game. So I will go with the Bulls +5.5 this early.
They need to rebuild, probably trade away stars like Jimmy because he hasn't been as good as he was before this season in terms of impact to the team. Bulls +5.5 should be a good value since they are coming off a huge win. However, the main concern here is, can they bring the same energy they showed in Toronto?
I'd choose the Bulls over the Heat here, the roster got more reliable cores unlike Heat but their problem is that the Bulls are somehow injury prone and if it weren't for DeRozan, the team couldn't stay afloat amid Vucevic and LaVine's absence due to injuries. Furthermore, the Bulls got a lot of defenders compared to the Heat. Anyway, a lot can happen because the Heat are more experienced. I'll take that spread as well.
