T.M. Selection: Miami Heat.

I'm expecting an outright win for Miami here but am going to take the 5.5 points in this battle at Milwaukee. The Bucks have been winning lately but the margin of victory has often been very small. The Heat have some momentum again after a much needed OT win at Toronto on Friday. The Heat have put the Jimmy Butler saga in the rear view mirror and they are ready to make a run here late in the season. Tyler Herro is listed as probable for this game and the rest yesterday helped his shoulder. The Bucks have been shaky, at best, recently and they will struggle to win this game so a cover is nowhere close to guaranteed for Milwaukee either. The Bucks are only 5-6 last 11 games and the 5 wins by an average margin of 6 points while 5 of the 6 losses were by double digit margins. The home team is over-valued here and the Heat will be "in it to win it" here! Upset alert but at least a cover here!

T.M. Prediction: 112-109 Miami.
