RD always great to see you as i always learn something brother! That first stat is unsettling but I'm leaning heavy toward Heat 1Q & under, Heat 1stH & under, and ...... obviously Heat fg & under. GL with your investments brother, haven't locked mine in so I will be awaiting your move lol
MIA being -1 right now is because of LeBron James and the Heat have gone a 'SPOT-LESS' 5-0 ATS after a loss in the playoffs, winning by an average of 21.6 PPG. Not because of Parker's status... even if Parker is limited, Pop should have a game plan in order but Parker should play even at limited minutes and gets 2 days rest til next game... if he is hurt more than expected, we will not know until during the game and tracking his minutes. Pop would not give that info out at anytime...
