Game Prediction
This is a game in which the Raptors are completely outmatched. Even if Miami decides to take it easy and go a little slow for parts of the game, it should be something of an uneven contest. Therefore, I’m not only going with the Miami Heat to win but also to cover.
Final Pick
Miami Heat -14.5 (-112)
