Sacramento vs Miami - Basketball - NBA - Tip Preview

Miami Heat are heading to Sacramento after they are currently playing really hard against the Phoenix Suns as I am writing this preview. With Kevin Martin and Fernando Garcia missing due to injury till at least the new year, things were supposed to turn for the worse. Tyreke Evans has brought about a spark in this team, along with Thompson and Hawes. Miami are led completely by Wade who is averaging 27ppg and trying to lead this team through a difficult West coast road trip after suffering 2 successive losses against the Nuggets and the Lakers who were the 2 teams to reach the Western Finals last year. They came close to beating the Lakers leading by 5 at one point in the final minute, but some streaky shooting by the Lakers, go them out of the hole including a Kobe buzzer beater. Michael Beasley and Jermaine O'Neal have finally adjusted themselves to this Heat team and are now Wade's dependable side-kicks in the squad as they contribute mid-double-digit scoring so far this season. They have had a day's rest, and despite the Kings being on a 4 game winning streak at home, they all came with a day's rest. But tonight with a back-to-back one away and one at home, things won't be too comfortable for the Kings especially since they have to keep up with the pace of the Suns so far. Miami to win this game tonight.
