Nets vs Heat: Porter's Heat, Wolf's Versatility

0:00It's March 3rd, here's your NBA news in two minutes. The Brooklyn Nets take on the Miami Heat tonight for their second match-up this season. They lost the first one back on December 18th, falling 106-95. The Nets have dropped 8 games in a row, but showed fight in Sunday's 106-102 loss against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Michael Porter Jr. bounced back strong, scoring 26 points on 10 of 17 shooting, including 5 of 8 from 3 point range. The young drivers like Danny Wolf, Grant Nelson, and Nolan Traowry put real pressure on the rim in that Cavs game, creating chances inside. Miami ranks 7th in the league, holding opponents to just 34.9% from deep, even if they allow a lot of 3 point tries. Thanks to defenders like Andrew Wiggins, Norman Powell, and Bamada Bio. The Heat also score the third most points in the pain at 54.3 per game, so the Nets will need to clog those lanes. Brooklyn sits without Igor Demon for a second-strike game due to a foot injury, but Nick

With his length, if Porter keeps heating up from outside, Wolf stays versatile, and Traowry hits his floaters, the Nets could keep it close in South Beach. Tip off is at 7.30pm Eastern Time.
