The 10th-most lethargic pace away team in the NBA over the last 5 games has been the Washington Wizards.The Heat have played at the most sluggish pace in the league in their home stadium this year, which ought to lead to fewer plays for the Washington Wizards.The Wizards have been the 2nd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 5 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce extra opportunities for scoring and assists).Bub Carrington will not enjoy the benefit of the home court advantage in this matchup. Playing without the home court advantage tends to lower player production in all stat categories.
