Golden State Warriors Preview

Draymond Green in action for the Golden State Warriors

The Golden State Warriors have struggled to find any semblance of rhythm following their loss against the Boston Celtics. With their last two losses coming against teams below .500, the Warriors are looking like a team in disarray.

Since Steph Curry went down with an injury, Golden State have gone on a three-game losing streak. Tuesday's loss to the Magic may be one of the more disappointing showings by the side this season.

Starting off poorly in the first-half, the Warriors showed signs of life in the third-quarter as they recorded 36 points. However, a dismal fourth quarter showing on both ends of the floor would see Golden State come up short by four points.

Although Jordan Poole and Klay Thompson have continued to contribute on the scoring front, their efforts have not yielded the desired results in this recent stretch.

Miami Heat Preview

Miami Heat v Brooklyn Nets

The Heat are coming off a disappointing loss against the 76ers. Playing with the majority of their roster in good health, Miami still managed to come up short against a significantly shorthanded Philadelphia side.

Miami's issues could be attributed to poor execution down the stretch. While the first-quarter saw a solid display on both ends of the floor, the rest of the game saw Miami trail off as Philadelphia gradually took over.

Although having their big three of Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo and Kyle Lowry is a major advantage for Miami, until they capitalize on the state of their roster, it won't make much of a difference.

With only 10 games to go, the Heat are in good position to finish the season with the best record in the East. But with the second-seeded Milwaukee Bucks only two games behind them, Miami cannot afford to take their foot off the pedal just yet.

Warriors VS Heat Match Predictions

The Miami Heat should emerge as winners against the Golden State Warriors in Wednesday's matchup.

With Steph Curry out, the Warriors have looked completely out of sorts. With severe negative momentum, Golden State will find it difficult to play against a solid defensive unit such as the Heat.

Additionally, Miami is likely to see a relatively healthier roster considering Butler's return from injury. This is a definite advantage for the side when facing one of the best teams in the West.
