The most lethargic tempo road offense in the NBA this year has been the Heat.The Miami Heat are expected to experience a decrease in opportunities in this game from squaring off against the 2nd-slowest pace-of-play team in the NBA over the last 15 games (the Boston Celtics).Offensive rebounds continue possession and lead to additional opportunities for scoring and assists, but the Heat rank 2ndworst in in the league with just 7.0 offensive rebounds per game over the last 5 games.Nikola Jovic will not possess the home court advantage in this contest. Playing away from your home city generally decreases player performance in all stat categories.
