*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Wednesday, April 5th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Thursday, April 6th.
Miami Heat
Despite consecutive wins versus the Mavericks and Pistons, the Heat haven’t exactly looked their best of late. Detroit led for much of the game Tuesday and it took an 18 point fourth-quarter from Jimmy Butler to cement the Heat victory.
The trio of elite East teams would prefer not to face Butler in the early rounds, however, Miami is struggling to close the season and the superstar will need much more from his teammates than they’ve been delivering of late.
Stats
Offensively, the Heat scores 109.1 points per game ranking 30th while shooting 45.8% from the field and 34.1% from the perimeter ranking 27th in both categories.
Defensively, the Heat allows opponents to score 109.8 points per game ranking second overall. Miami opponents shoot 48.3% from the field and 37% from the perimeter ranking 21st and 23rd respectively.
Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Nikola Jovic SF (downgraded to OUT— back)
Philadelphia 76ers
The trio at the top of the East have all been trading victories against each other. Boston routed the Bucks who pummeled the 76ers who finished the circle by defeating the Celts.
Assuming all three win their first-round series it highlights how competitive the matches will be in the semi-finals and conference finals. Philly appears destined for the third seed while the Bucks need a single win to clinch the East.
After a stellar campaign finishing third will mean the Sixers have to defeat both the Celtics and Bucks who’ll have home-court advantage.
UPDATE: Following Wednesday’s matches the 76ers are locked into the third seed.
Stats
So far this season, the 76ers score an average of 114.9 points per game ranking 14th. Philly shoots 48.6% from the field and 38.7% from the perimeter, ranking eighth and first respectively.
What’s more, defense is where the 76ers make their mark allowing the third-fewest opponent points per game with 110.5 and the fourth-best perimeter defense at 34.7% while ranking 12th for opponent field goal percentage allowing opponents to shoot 47.1%.

Free Miami Heat vs. Philadelphia 76ers NBA Prediction:
As noted above after games played Wednesday, the top five seeds in the East are cemented with the Bucks, Celtics, 76ers, Cavaliers, and Knicks locked into seeds one through five respectively.
While that should theoretically mean the Sixers would rest their core there is a reason to believe Doc Rivers would want to ensure the Heat remain in the play-in tournament.
Philly knows how physical the Heat are so it would behoove them to make sure Boston or Milwaukee face them in the first round while they draw a far less physical and inexperienced Nets squad.
*Notably, Miami split 2-2 versus the Bucks and won the Celtics season series 2-1.
