Key facts

• Victor Oladipo and Gabe Vincent are out for the Heat
• Ben Simmons, Joe Harris and LaMarcus Aldridge will not play for the Nets
• Miami has won the last four games against Brooklyn

As things stand at the moment, this match up may happen in the first round of the playoffs even though, when healthy, both Miami and Brooklyn look capable of winning the East. What makes the Heat a dangerous team is the consistency and the die-hard style of play they implement. No played averages more than 21 points per game and it seems like everyone on the team knows their role and a doing a great job playing it. The Heat have a great ball movement and multiple shooting treats. Butler and Adebayo are among the best duos in the league and what makes them outstanding is their work on the defensive end. However, every team is going through problems which was obvious for the Heat who almost got into a fight on the bench two games ago.

Kevin Durant and the Nets are among the best offensive teams in the league and there is no defense that can hold them down on a good night. KD is the second-best scorer in the league at the moment and will do his part in Miami but a lot will depend on Kyrie Irving’s performance. The point guard recently scored 50 against the defending champion Milwaukee Bucks and is ready for another hot night in Miami. The Nets need this win more and that will prove to be crucial as KD and Irving will lead the Nets to a win against the best team in the conference.
