Philadelphia 76ers vs Miami Heat: Miami Heat -7.5 

Over/Under Odds: 208.5

Philadelphia 76ers vs Miami Heat Pick: Philadelphia 76ers +7.5, Under 208.5

Odds From Betonline.ag 

Who in the right mind is doing the odds for the NBA playoffs? I mean seriously look at the spread is 7.5 in favor of the Heat. Yes, the 76ers do have injury issues, but still the 76ers do have quite a bit of talent still on the court at any given time. Now, on the plus side I do not see the Heat covering because 7.5 even with an injury riddled 76ers team seems to be a stretch. The total, though, because of the said injuries and the fact that both teams play good defensively should easily hit the under.
