money Line
Passed with a heavy “lean” towards the Raptors (-170), as they have a dominant strength-on-weakness Leading on Heat (+135) in ball safety.
For example, according to CleaningTheGlass.com (CTG), the Raptors have the highest defensive turnover rate (TOV%) and the fourth worst offensive TOV% in the heats.
In addition, Toronto enjoys the second-highest number of points per game turnover and Miami ranks 20th in allowed turnover points per game.
That said, the Raptors (-170) are a bit out of my price range for this spot so I’ll keep points with Toronto instead.

over under
Passed Because my numbers align with the market’s predicted score, this total has no value to me.
For what it’s worth, Toronto is 38-39 o/u and 11-9 o/u when playing with rest advantage while Miami is 44-32-1 o/u and 9-4 o/u on zero rest days So I “lean” over 212.5 (-115).
But, most of the action is on the overs and the total hasn’t progressed beyond the opener, so it could be a mesh line Over backers.
