Heat seeks 2nd straight win vs. Mavericks

The struggling star-studded Miami Heat team seeks to get its second straight win when they visit the Dallas Mavericks in the ongoing National Basketball Association season on Saturday evening.
Sporting a 9-7 win-loss record, the Heat hopes to get its winning groove back when they face the dangerous Mavericks at its own home-floor.
Despite its star laden line-up made up of three of the top young NBA superstars, the Heat is the underdog in this game due to the superior 11-4 record.
Heat superstars’ point-guard Dwayne “Flash” Wade, Lebron “King” James, and Chris Bosh will have their hands full against the Mavericks who will once again be lead by its one-two punch made up superstar power-forward Dirk Nowitzki and veteran point-guard Jason Kidd.

The three Heat superstars need to complement each other if it wishes to defeat the Mavericks and go back to its winning groove.
Before the start of the current NBA season, the Heat had been considered as one of the top favorites to bring home the championship crown alongside defending champion Los Angeles Lakers and NBA Eastern conference powerhouse Boston Celtics.
However, as the NBA season progresses the Heat has shown that they still have a lot of things to do in order to get the NBA crown one of whom is team chemistry as shown by their losses this year.
Despite its losing woes, NBA experts still believe the Heat can still go all the way and become the champion in the 2010 NBA season.
To accomplish its goal to capture the NBA crown, the Heat needs to start winning consistently now starting in its game against the favored Mavericks team.
The Mavericks for its part is poised to get its 12th victory against the Heat if they can limit the big-three of the Heat.
To defeat the Heat, Nowitzki and Kidd also need to produce a great game and make life hard for their visitor.
The way things are going the favorite Mavericks is expected to win but it could change if the Heat big-three can produce a monster game against the home-team in their game.

Minnesota Timberwolves at Miami Heat Betting Preview

In their first seven NBA seasons, LeBron James and Dwyane Wade developed reputations as two of basketball’s best offensive weapons. Defense, though, has been the key to their success since joining forces on the Miami Heat. The Heat look to maintain their stifling defense Tuesday when the Minnesota Timberwolves come to town.

Miami (3-1) has not given up more than 88 points through four games of the season. They are allowing a league-low 80.8 points per game and have not allowed a field goal to an opposing starting power forward in the last two games.

After a shaky offensive start to the season, the superstar trio of James, Wade, and Chris Bosh is closing in on a successful balance. In Sunday’s 101-78 win over New Jersey, James led the way with 20 points while Bosh and Wade added 18 and 17 points respectively.

Michael Beasley will return to Miami after being traded by the Heat to the Timberwolves in the offseason. Beasley spent his first two seasons on the Heat after they made him the number two overall selection of the 2008 NBA Draft. He posted career highs of 14.8 points per game and 6.4 rebounds per game last season and hoped to play alongside Wade, James, and Bosh. But now he is focused on helping the Timberwolves improve on a disastrous 2009-10 season, leading the way with a team-high 14.7 points per game average.

Beasley’s teammate Kevin Love will look to continue his strong start. The power forward is averaging 14 points per game and leads the team in rebounds at 14 per game. Even more impressive is that Love has put up such terrific stats in just 25 minutes per game.
