⚖️ Analysis Summary
Public sentiment heavily favors the Heat at 62% with aligned money distribution, suggesting market consensus on the favorite, but simulation metrics reveal a tight contest where the Bulls cover +3.5 holds edge amid stable lines. Sharp action appears absent without RLM, supporting a selective fade of public overexposure. Overall scoring outlook leans slightly toward over 221.5 given Bulls’ recent offensive output and average total proximity, tempered by Heat’s variable defense.
🔮 Recommended Play
