I'm with Matt here. That was a draining loss for Miami at Milwaukee on Wednesday. The Heat have fared well against the number in back-to-backs this year, but that's a tough turnaround and the Nets, who have lost four of five and are clinging to a play-in spot, have to get this thing going in the right direction. Kevin Durant took his time returning so he's going to play heavy minutes, and P.J. Tucker, a bull of a Durant defender, is out for Miami, as are Jimmy Butler and Kyle Lowry. Nets cover.

The Heat played a playoff-type game on Wednesday in Milwaukee and won't have Jimmy Butler, Kyle Lowry or PJ Tucker tonight -- I think they come out totally flat regardless. Were Kevin Durant most humans, I'd worry about rust in his return from a long injury absence, but he's not human and doesn't apparently have a minutes limit.
