The Heat are the faves at the sportsbook web site to win the NBA title this year but all is not well in Miami. There's a lot of pressure on this team to make it to the Finals this year given all the hype surrounding them and their recent acquisitions in the course of the offseason. The so-called "Miami Thrice" era is only barely getting going and there have already been a few bad signs and some fans are already sick and tired of the hype. The Miami Heat hasn't had guard Dwyane Wade for almost all the preseason and now guard Mike Miller is wounded. The Miami Heat are getting a lot of press at the sportsbook page but before you go and drop cash on Miami you may want to see only how excellent they really are. Miami is expected to have Wade back for their year opener but Miller is going to be out for at least a few weeks with a thumb injury. Miller was expected to provide outside shooting this year for the Miami Heat and he'll be missed. Miller had been starting in the preseason instead of Wade who has missed just about a few minutes of the preseason with a hamstring injury. In the preseason, the average for Miller was 9.4 points, 3.6 rebounds and 3.2 assists. High Anticipations - The Miami Heat are expected to win a lot of games this year and dominate the league. It might not happen. LeBron James continues to be a great player and when Wade is healthy he is very excellent too and there is no doubt that Chris Bosh can score. What is unknown is the amount the loss of Miller will harm and if all of it will come together for the Miami Heat. Bear in mind that the Miami Heat have an insanely high year win total of 64.5 at the sportsbook and they're fewer than 2-1 to win the NBA title. Maybe the Miami Heat will only blow other teams away in the regular season, however count me as a skeptic. James hasn't won a single thing in his career and despite the fact that he is really talented, he may not dominate every evening. The public still enjoys Miami however at the sportsbook web site as folks are wagering that win total over. The other problem confronting James is that now he will be playing alongside other major stars with major egos to match. The Cleveland Cavaliers were thrilled to play as backups to the King James juggernaut, but superstar competitors like Bosh and Wade may not be so inclined. How well he really works with this group continues to be to be seen. Miller's Figures - Miller signed a $25 million, five-year deal with Miami. He was being counted on to provide outside shooting. He was the league's second-best shooter from three-point range last year. The Miami Heat will miss his shooting as they do not have a reputable outside threat. You might want to watch Miami for a short time this year before you get too excited about wagering their prospects at the sportsbook page.
