Pick: 2 units on Miami -5.5

It is said you are not down in the NBA playoffs until you lose a game at home. This is where Shaq usually makes a big showing, in close-out games and at home, in games with his team's back against the wall. Last year if you remember vs. Chicago, he scored 8 and 16 points in the first two games. The third at home he scored and pulled down 11 boards. Then in the close-out game he scored 30 with 20 boards. Look for the Miami defense to turn it up a notch tonight and for Shaq to have a monster game. The Heat desparately need this and last year vs. Dallas, down 2-0, they showed their mettle. Chicago is 16-25 ATS on the road this year and we look for a rested Miami team to come out punching.
