Miami Heat vs Chicago Bulls

When healthy, the Bulls have the second most talented roster in the East behind the Cavaliers. Unfortunately, injuries have taken their toll on Fred Hoiberg’s team and Chicago is currently tied with Detroit for the final playoff spot. The Miami Heat have also been playing without Chris Bosh, who remains out indefinitely with a blood clot issue. The Heat scored big when they signed former All-Star SG Joe Johnson for the remainder of the season after he had his contract bought out by Brooklyn. Johnson will give the Heat a boost from behind the three-point arc. Miami has won six of their last ten games overall and currently sit in fourth place in the East. What tips this game is the willingness to compete I saw in this Chicago roster and having Derick Rose back tonight will be a huge boost of energy for them. Miami should be able to close this one out but I do expect a close game. Backing Chicago with the smaller amount seems like a thin value bet for me. Good Luck.

Chicago Bulls Asian Handicap +7.50 in full event at odds 1.80
