In Part II of our prop bets here at Maddux, we’ll look at the prop bets for the host team, the Miami Heat. Big three, and Jesus Shuttlesworth (of course?)—the rest would be patchy guesswork, irrelevant numbers. You get the idea.

NBA fans just received the best early Christmas present imaginable when we found out there would in fact be an NBA season this year, and fittingly enough, it will begin on Christmas day, as we joyously return to the days of Dirk’s fadeaway and LeBron’s fade…ing hairline. Aging freaks notwithstanding, bettors are excited because Bodog has put up the future’s betting on 2012 NBA Championship prospects. The Heat are the favored team this season, while the defending champion Mavericks are at 17/2. We’re not unaccustomed to such injustices, but we’ll examine Miami and the other favorites’ chances in this preview.

Well, last time on Wednesday I had a decent night hitting 7 of 12 to redeem myself after the horrendous night the time before. There’s a big schedule on tap tonight, so I went big, and made 18 player prop predictions for tonight, 11 ‘overs’ and 7 ‘unders.’
