The Hornets are likely very happy to return to Charlotte after suffering two double-digit defeats in South Beach in their first round series against the Heat. The funny thing is, the Miami Heat probably don’t mind the series shifting to North Carolina either as they’re 10-3 SU in their last 13 road games against the Hornets.
- The Hornets are 1-5 ATS in their last six games with two days off between games.
- Miami is 8-2 ATS in its last 10 games in Charlotte.
- Charlotte is 3-7 ATS in its last 10 games.
Buzz City opened as a favorite, but they’ve had a tough time covering as a home fave lately, going just 1-5 ATS in that spot. Despite the poor ATS record at home, Charlotte is 24-6 SU in their last 30 games as a home favorite.
As a road dog, the Heat have been a team to stay away from as they’re 0-5 SU and ATS in their last five. Another thing working against the Heat is their recent inability to string together three straight wins, as they’re 0-5 SU in their last five games after consecutive wins.
Perhaps this is the game that trend starts to reverse though, as Miami has owned Charlotte this decade, winning 26 of 30 games against them SU while going 18-10-2 ATS.
