He&#8217;ll look to do the same Wednesday night as Miami hopes to continue it&#8217;s surge into the postseason. Orlando has won 4 of 6 since new head coach James Borrego took over. They&#8217;ll hope to continue their winning ways against a team they beat last time they met back on December 29th.<\/p>\n<h3>Miami<\/h3>\n<p>The Heat took a chance when they acquired PG Goran Dragic. Knowing he&#8217;ll more than likely not resign after this season, they hoped the rental player could produce some magic and help them sneak into the playoffs. While they sit 7 games below the break-even mark, they still currently hold the 7 seed in the Eastern Conference.<\/p>\n<p>Things obviously will not be easy for Miami as they will be without F\/C Chris Bosh for the remainder of the season. That means players like Hassan Whiteside will need to step up in a big way.<\/p>\n<p>Along with Dragic, F Luol Deng and PG Mario Chalmers will need to pick up the scoring. Deng is averaging 14.4 points a game, while Chalmers is scoring 11.0.<\/p>\n<p>On the road this season, Miami comes in with a 14-15 S.U. record. They have covered 16 of their road games, with 12 losses ATS and 1 push.<\/p>\n<h3>Orlando<\/h3>\n<p>While it isn&#8217;t hard to improve on the way the Magic have played all season, they are however doing some good things with a new head coach calling the shots. Orlando comes in with their longest winning streak of the season, winners of their last 3 games.<\/p>\n<p>In their most previous performance on Sunday, Vucevic scored 31 points and grabbed 14 rebounds. Future star Victor Oladipo contributed 17 points.<\/p>\n<p>Orlando&#8217;s stats won&#8217;t wow anybody on paper, but they do have some individual players who have shown they have great potential going forward. Nikola Vucevic is averaging a double-double with 19.8 points a game and 11.4 rebounds. F Tobias Harris has been a pleasant surprise as he has averaged 17.1 points a game.<\/p>\n<p>Orlando is hoping Victor Oladipo can be the future face of the organization. So far, he&#8217;s giving people a reason to believe. Oladipo is averaging 16.7 points and 4.1 rebounds this season.<\/p>\n<p>The only role the Magic can obviously play is spoiler as the season winds down, if they can continue to play like they&#8217;ve been, it should give the organization and fans something to believe in.<\/p>\n<h3>NBA Basketball Trends:<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"more\">\n<li class=\"more\">Heat are 8-3-1 ATS in their last 12 road games.<\/li>\n<li class=\"more\">Heat are 6-18-2 ATS in their last 26 Wednesday games.<\/li>\n<li class=\"more\">Magic are 3-1-1 ATS in their last 5 when their opponent allows 100 points or more in their previous game.<\/li>\n<li class=\"more\">Magic are 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 games overall.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Free 4* NBA Basketball Pick: Miami -3<\/h3>\n<p>After seeing what Goran Dragic can do, Miami could be a dangerous team come playoff time. First and foremost though, they have to get there.<\/p>\n<h3>Miami 103, Orlando 93<\/h3>\n<p>To get there, winning games like these are a must.
