With the Miami Heat needing to go 7-1 or better to get out of the play-in, they start the stretch in Indiana against a Pacers team that should be one of the easier games left -- but they've lost to them already this season. Ethan Skolnick and Eternal Bast give you a preview, with PrizePicks as well.
