The latest take from the folks with money on the line have Erik Spoelstra guiding the Miami Heat to another respectable season in 2018-19.
In six full seasons without LeBron James, the Heat under Spoelstra’s coaching, won a total of 260 games, lost 232 in the regular season, missed the playoffs twice, and made the second round once.
The rock-solid track record of mediocrity gives Miami a handicap of +3000, which is one spot ahead of the Washington Wizards +4000 line for an eight place finish in the East next season.
