Bet on basketball action on Friday should be exciting as the Atlanta Hawks host the Miami Heat. Atlanta has Joe Johnson who leads them in scoring while Miami has Dwyane Wade. Basketball betting odds show that Atlanta is a small home favorite in this matchup on Friday.
Wager on basketball scheduling information tells us that Miami is playing the first half of a back-to-back on Friday. The Heat are back home tomorrow against the New York Knicks. The Hawks are playing their first home game in a while since they just completed a six-game road trip on Wednesday.
Wager on basketball trends favor the Heat in this game. Miami has won 6 of the last 10 games between the two teams and they are 7-3 against the basketball odds. The teams have split their last four meetings in Atlanta both straight up and against the basketball odds. The two teams have met twice so far this season, with both games in Miami, and each team won a game as the bet on basketball results show. The Heat won 95-79 last month while the Hawks won 87-73 back in December as previous bet on basketball stats indicate.
The Heat are ranked just outside the Top 10 in defense as wager on basketball stats indicate. The Heat are much weaker on offense but Wade is a superstar scorer and can impact basketball betting odds on a regular basis. Perhaps the addition of Jermaine O’Neal will help the Heat in bet on basketball action but that remains to be seen.
Atlanta has very similar wager on basketball numbers to Miami. The Hawks are just outside the Top 10 in defense as bet on basketball stats have it. Atlanta also struggles somewhat on offense but Johnson can win games on his own. Atlanta may have more depth and overall talent than Miami since Mike Bibby, Al Horford, and Josh Smith can also score.
Seven of the last ten games between the two teams have gone under the basketball betting total. Three of the last four games in Atlanta between the two teams have gone under the basketball betting number.
