Joe D'Amico's NBA Pure Profit Payer

New York vs. Miami, 04/28/2012 15:30 EDT, Score: 67 - 100

Point Spread: -8½/-108 Miami

Sportsbook: 5Dimes

Result: Win

Today's winner is Miami over New York. This is my Pure Profit Payer.

Miami has taken all three meetings over New York this season by an average of 10.6 PPG. The Big Three chose to rest over the last few weeks and will come into this game fresh and hungry. With Haslem now a starter, the front line has a toughness and strength. King James has averaged 27.8 PPG, 7.1 RPG, and 6.9 APG, in his 30 career games against NY. The Knicks's Lin is out, and both Chandler and Douglas are listed as questionable as both are battling a flu and a virus. New York can score but they give up more points than an All-Star game. Even if Chandler plays, he won't be 100% and that will destroy NY in the paint. James, Bosh, and Haslem team up for 23.1 RPG. The Heat's bench has more depth, experience, and intelligence. Take Miami. Thank you.
