The NBA trade deadline has come and gone with neither the Miami Heat nor the Boston Celtics making seismic moves.
Miami, in particular, stands out as one of only three teams to have not made a trade this season.
My Heat vs. Celtics predictions expect Miami to be a bit let down by that inaction, the effects of the trade deadline impacting plenty of NBA picks on Friday, February 6.
Heat vs Celtics prediction
Heat vs Celtics best bet: Under 228 (-110)
The Miami Heat were supposedly in the mix for two of the biggest names on the trade market. And they walked away with exactly nothing.
We have all heard that story before, but it has to be deflating for that locker room to hear it was considering title contention only to putter forward with this middling roster.
That deflated vibe should play right into the Boston Celtics’ preferences. Miami plays at the fastest pace in the league, while Boston plays at the slowest.
Trust the Celtics to set the terms tonight.
