<h2>Reasons To Back Miami </h2>
<p>The mojo is working with the Heat right now as they have been playing at quite a high level. This is a basketball team that has rumbled with the big dogs of the Western Conference and very simply they are not playing like a below .500 team by any means. Brooklyn's recent successes in this series will only diminish the price of Miami in this market and allow us an opportunity to snag some value.
