The Heat just put on one of their worst defensive performances this season, allowing the Jazz to shoot 54.9 percent from the field. That\u2019s quite a surprise considering the Heat are among the league leaders in scoring defense, allowing just 94.8 points per game this campaign.<\/p>\n<p>[sc:NBA240banner ]Things are bound to get tougher for the road-weary Heat as standing in their way tonight are the red-hot Golden State Warriors. The defending champions are 17-0 at Oracle Arena this season and have not lost a home game since January 27, 2015. To make matters worse for the Heat, the Warriors are the league\u2019s best offensive team, averaging a whopping 114.5 points per game this season.<\/p>\n<p>Stopping the Warriors will be doubly harder for the Heat with injuries ravaging their squad as we speak. Dwyane Wade (shoulder), Tyler Johnson (shoulder) and Hassan Whiteside (knee) all played through some discomfort or missed the game entirely against the Jazz. With this trio\u2019s participation in question for tonight\u2019s ballgame, the onus is on Chris Bosh to lead the charge for Miami. He\u2019s having a renaissance of a season thus far, averaging a team-best 19.2 points and 7.9 boards per game this campaign.<\/p>\n<p>For Miami to pull off the victory, though, it needs to find a way to stop the sizzling Stephen Curry. He averaged 36 points in a pair of wins over the Heat last season. He has been on fire for Golden State this campaign, averaging a league-best 29.5 points per game this season.<\/p>\n<p>The Heat are 6-4 ATS in their last 10 road games.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Join TopBet online sportsbook\" href=\"http:\/\/record.tbaffiliate.com\/_y8k7RB3Ll4xutv7iXV6HvmNd7ZgqdRLk\/9\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"broken_link\" rel=\"nofollow\">Create a betting account now<\/a>\u00a0and cash in on all the NBA action!<\/p>\n<h3><b>Betting on the Golden State Warriors (35-2)<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Stephen+Curry+Golden+State+Warriors+v+Los+wjpiNPPoia1l.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-90391\" title=\"Miami-Heat-vs-Golden-State-Warriors-Predictions-Picks-and-Preview\" alt=\"Miami Heat vs Golden State Warriors Predictions, Picks and Preview\" src=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Stephen+Curry+Golden+State+Warriors+v+Los+wjpiNPPoia1l.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"436\" srcset=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Stephen+Curry+Golden+State+Warriors+v+Los+wjpiNPPoia1l.jpg 600w, http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Stephen+Curry+Golden+State+Warriors+v+Los+wjpiNPPoia1l-250x181.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The defending champions extended their winning streak to six games with an impressive 128-116 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Saturday. It was a fantastic victory by the Warriors, who extended their lead atop the Western Conference standings to 3.5 games.<\/p>\n<p>To no one\u2019s surprise, it was Stephen Curry who stole the show for the Warriors on Saturday night. The reigning MVP led all scorers with 38 points, including going 8-of-14 from the three-point line. The Warriors were actually red-hot as a team from beyond the arc, nailing 19 of their 37 three-pointers. The Warriors lead the league in three-point shooting this season with an exceptional 42.9 percent clip.<\/p>\n<p>The Warriors now set their sights on a 36-2 start when they face the Miami Heat tonight. One player who\u2019s expected to step up big time this evening is Draymond Green. He was superb in the game against Sacramento, scoring 25 points and grabbing nine boards. He has been tremendous for the Warriors this campaign, averaging 15.0 points, 9.6 rebounds and 7.4 assists per game this season.<\/p>\n<p>The Warriors are 2-7-1 ATS in their last 10 home games against the Heat.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Writer\u2019s Prediction<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Golden State wins, 115-97.<\/p>\n[sc:NBA620 ]\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"pvc_stats all \" data-element-id=\"89710\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> &nbsp;2,285&nbsp;total views, &nbsp;1&nbsp;views today<\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There\u2019s just no stopping the Golden State Warriors.
