It’s another chaotic slate today, so I wanted to save a little time writing to focus more on helping with projections. I’ll just be hitting the macro notes today, and of course I’ll be adding more stuff on the shows later.

 

MIA @ NYK | PHI @ HOU | IND @ MIN | DET @ NOP | CHI @ UTA | DEN @ GSW | TOR @ PHX | MEM @ SAC | WAS @ POR | SAS @ LAL

 

Miami Heat at New York Knicks

Team Totals: Heat 101.5, Knicks 108

Injury Report: Alec Burks (O, back), Andrew Wiggins (Q, leg)

Heat projected starters: Tyler Herro, Duncan Robinson, Andrew Wiggins, Bam Adebayo, Kel’El Ware

Knicks projected starters: Deuce McBride, Mikal Bridges, Josh Hart, OG Anunoby, Karl-Anthony Towns

Spo quotes: Said they were trying to take away as many 3-pointers as they could’ve against the Celtics, said they did not meet their standards for competing against the Grizzlies, said it’s humbling to be on this losing streak, said it’s really hard on them to just win one game to get out of this losing streak.

Thibs quotes: Said he loves Josh Hart and the argument was them just trying to get the team going.

Stats and Notes: 

*Miami is just a disaster right now with a seven-game losing streak. During this losing streak, they are dead last on offense and are bottom eight for rim and 3-point FG%. Plus, they’re playing slow to give them a horrendous 101.1 points per game (Magic next closest at 108.1). Their defense hasn’t even been good either at 23rd in halfcourt D rating during this span. It’s shocking to see a Spo team be this bad, and they get a Knicks defense that’s been great since Jalen Brunson went down. Since the day of his injury, the Knicks are third in defense and second in halfcourt rating. They’ve been great at the rim and have also cut down on C&S stuff, but they’re still getting killed on the ball with the league’s worst PNR handler defense (points per game). The Knicks have been struggling a bit on the offensive end and they’re getting some bad shots with a lack of rim and 3-point output. This should be a bad game environment overall with the Knicks at 27th in offensive pace and the Heat at 23rd.

 

Great matchups: Nobody

Good matchups: Tyler Herro, Deuce McBride

Bad matchups: Mikal Bridges, Bam Adebayo, Karl-Anthony Towns
