Wednesday night NBA features two teams on the very opposite ends of the momentum spectrum. One enters this contest on a four-game winning streak and having just knocked off the Golden State Warriors, while the other has lost 13 of its last 14 and is coming off a brutal beatdown at the hands of the San Antonio Spurs.
*All statistics, rankings, standings and records are accurate as of this writing at 3:00 a.m. ET on Tuesday, Jan. 24.
Miami Heat
The Miami Heat are finally putting things together. The odds of them making the postseason are still minuscule, but they’ve won four straight and have knocked off two playoff contenders in the process.
The team’s most recent outing saw Dion Waiters starting to come into his own. The 25-year-old is on his third team in as many seasons, but he posted a career-high 33 points in the most recent showing against the Warriors.

That game was capped off with a game-winning jumper from Waiters himself, and while it’s not to be expected that he records career highs every night, his previous career-high of 33 was recorded just a single game earlier.
On the year, Miami is averaging 98.8 points per game. That number is only good enough for 28th in the league, but over the last four, this group is posting 105.5 points per contest.

Defensively, the Heat are allowing 102.5 points per game.
That number is good enough for seventh in the league, and improves to an otherworldly 99.3 points per contest allowed over the recent winning streak.
Brooklyn Nets
The Nets, who started the year better than most expected, have regressed to the mean. And the mean in this case is dead last in the Eastern Conference.
The catch here is that Brooklyn is legitimately trying to win games. It doesn’t have the luxury of earning ping pong balls in the June lottery because Boston owns its pick.
This group is trying to win — it’s just not finding any success in the process.
On the year, the Nets are 106.2 points per game. That number is good enough for 11th in the league, but that has more to do with the team’s league-leading pace, which makes up for the terrible offensive efficiency.
Defensively, this group is giving up 114.9 points per game. That number places the Nets in 30th.

If you’re thinking that number is only last place because of the pace, think again.
This team has an awful defensive efficiency ranking, which combined with the pace creates a ton of scoring opportunities for opponents night in and night out.
