4/27 NBA: Miami at Chicago (No Spread)

[swole]

In betting circles, handicappers will tell you small home dogs pack a mean bite. The Bulls look to sink their teeth into the favored Heat Thursday as 1-point underdogs in Game 3 of their playoff series.

Miami can take a commanding 3-0 series lead with a win tonight. To prevent that from happening, Chicago's defense will need to find a way to stop both Shaquille O'Neal and Dwyane Wade.

The Heat opened as 1-point road favorites, and the total opened at 199.5.

Scott Skiles' team lost Game 2 to Miami 115-108 as 7.5-point underdogs. The 223 points sent that game OVER the posted total of 195.5.

Some trends to consider:
Miami is 1-6-1 ATS in its last 8 games after being 7.5 to 10 point favorites
Miami is 1-4-0 ATS in its last 5 games
Miami is 2-6-0 ATS in its last 8 away games
Miami is 2-5-1 OU in its last 8 away
Chicago is 5-0-0 ATS in its last 5 games against Miami
Chicago is 5-0-0 ATS in its last 5 games
Chicago is 5-0-0 OU in its last 5 games
Chicago is 4-1-0 OU in its last 5 at home
