The "Heats" are in OKC tonight to play the "Thunders." OKC is already at the half-way point of the season and is 23-18. Which is great considering they don't have the Beard, Russ or Paul George (or is it George Paul?). They do have Chris Paul, they do have second year Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, a 21 year old phenom who is averaging 20, 5.7 (at only 6'5") and 3.3, they do have "Heats" heartthrob (and Pitt alum) 6'11" Steven Adams, who does play a position, center (averages only 1.0 per game though) but who is, well, this is what Jimmy said about Steven in 2018:

"That motherfucker is strong. Like, I’m serious. He hit me with one screen today, and I thought my life was over. Like, seriously. He’s like from Krypton or something, seriously. He’s strong. I’m gonna call him in here and let him set a screen on you. Dude... I'm trying to tell you."

                                          I'll give you a dollar if you try to take that basketball from him.

And OKC has Billy Donovan as head coach, one of the best in the bidness.

Miami plays its 41st game tonight, the half-way point. They will either be 29-12 or 28-13, either one or two games worse than they 2016/17 team the second half. So Miami has a better record, a better coach, the best player on the floor tonight and some young phenoms of their own. But the game is in Oklahoma City and the "Heats" are 10-11 in all games outside the City of Miami. OKC is -2 tonight. I'm betting on the "Heats" to win straight up tonight. The last time Erik Spoelstra told the media his team isn't a good road team they went up to Philly and beat the "Processed Cheeses." After the Wobble in the Apple I think the players will prove their coach wrong again (if Jimmy can avoid Steven Adams picks). Tyler Herro is out with a bruised knee. Justise Winslow is out the next two weeks because of his back and because he's Justise.
