Spread & Over/Under Predictions for Hornets vs. Heat

Can the Hornets cover the spread?

Each game day, we at All Hornets will release an article on our thoughts on the spread and the over/under of Charlotte Hornets games. The star ratings next to the play describe the overall confidence in that particular play.

Star ratings:

1 Star - Not very confident

2 Star - A little confident

3 Star - Fairly confident

4 Star - Very confident

5 Star - Should be a lock to happen

Spread: Heat -8.5

1 Star play on the Hornets (+8.5): I'm holding my nose to the window with this one. Before I even looked at the spread and total, I predicted the Heat to win 114-107. So, we're literally right up against both sides of this. That said, the Hornets played Miami tough the other night despite falling into a bit of a whole by turning the ball over allowing the Heat to shoot 45% from downtown. Charlotte has enough to keep it in range, so we'll take the points.

Over/Under: 222.5

1 Star play on the under: When these two get together, it's typically an over more often than not. I went against the trend on Monday taking the under and it backfired. Somehow, I'm backing the under once again. Much of it is because I don't see these two sinking a combined 32 three-pointers again. Take the under if you play it.

My picks this season

ATS: 7-9 (44%)

O/U: 7-9 (44%)

Overall: 14-18 (44%)
