Line: Miami Heat at Chicago Bulls – view all NBA lines

[sc:NBA240banner ]What in the world is happening to Miami? The three-time NBA champions stumbled to their fourth consecutive defeat with a humiliating 101-81 loss to the Toronto Raptors on Friday. Miami’s offensive woes are to blame for their recent struggles as they’re averaging just 80.3 points on 41.7 percent shooting during their four-game losing skid.

It won’t get any easier for the Heat as standing in their way tonight are the Chicago Bulls. The Bulls are coming off a convincing 96-83 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers. They are now 8-2 against the NBA’s top six teams this season. The Bulls will now try to win consecutive games for the first time in nearly three weeks when they host the Heat at the United Center.

The Heat are 3-2 SU and ATS in their last five road games against the Bulls.

Writer’s Prediction

Chicago wins, 93-86.

San Antonio Spurs vs. Golden State Warriors (10:30 PM ET)

Line: San Antonio Spurs (+4.5) at Golden State Warriors (-4.5); total: 209.5 – view all NBA lines

The Golden State Warriors stretched their unbeaten run to three games with a 122-110 victory over the Indiana Pacers on Friday night. Five players scored in double-figures for the Warriors who maintained their two-game lead atop the Western Conference standings.

They will look to extend their 38-game regular-season home winning streak when they face the San Antonio Spurs later tonight. For the Warriors to accomplish that feat, they will need to continue their excellent play on the offensive end. The Warriors are averaging a league-best 114.7 points per game this season. They will have their work cut out for them, however, against a San Antonio defense that’s allowing just 89.8 points per game, the fewest in the NBA this campaign.

The Spurs are 4-1 SU and ATS in their last five road games against the Warriors.

Writer’s Prediction

San Antonio edges past Golden State, 101-97.
