Charlotte Hornets vs Miami Heat Prediction: Will the Heat extend their winning streak?

Miami has won five games in a row. Next opponent is Charlotte, one of the weakest teams of the season. Will the Heat extend their winning streak? Let's find out what to bet on this game.

Charlotte Hornets

The Hornets seemingly made a mistake in bringing in Steve Clifford, a defense specialist, as head coach ahead of last season. The Charlotte roster is not the right one for Clifford's methods to be effective. As a result, the team began to play worse on offense than under James Borrego, and its defense never appeared.

The Hornets approach the game against Miami with a 3-6 balance. In the previous game, Charlotte faced New York at Madison Square Garden and didn't even qualify to avoid a double-digit loss, 107:129.

Miami Heat

The Heat started the season at 1-4 but then picked up the pace and made it five straight wins ahead of their road trip to Charlotte. At home, the team beat Washington (121:114) and the Los Angeles Lakers (108:107) and then went on tour, where they were stronger than Memphis (108:102) and San Antonio (118:113), and even without Jimmy Butler, they managed Atlanta (117:109).

Another leader of the team, Tyler Herro, also missed a few games. But the Heat are so systematic that even key players' injuries often do not affect the team's efficiency.

Expert Betting Tips

Charlotte is a team whose prospects are less believable with each match. The Heat are not the opponent. The Hornets will take the path of correction. The team from Miami not only has the potential to be one of the best in the league, but they're also on a strong run. The team has beaten much more serious opponents during their winning streak of the last five games, and they will surely handle Charlotte as confidently as possible. We bet on Miami to win in a successful match, taking into account the Hornets' game imbalance.
