Preview:
It’s a cross conference showdown on Thursday between the 12-4 Heat and a Rockets team on a three-game slide.
James Harden currently leads the league in points-per-game, but that still hasn’t saved the Rockets from losing to the Nuggets, Clippers and Mavericks in succession. There’s a chance Houston takes the court minus Clint Capela in this one, creating a favourable matchup for Miami centers Bam Adebayo and Kelly Olynyk.
The Heat aren’t scoring points in a hurry, but just like last season, their defence is doing the talking.
Miami has held opponents to the seventh-fewest points in the league and the second-lowest rebound average, creating further matchup nightmares for the Rockets. The Heat have also won two of their last three games against Houston, making them the side to bet on in this East v West battle.
Covering in four of their seven games so far, the Heat have already proven to be a strong betting play against non-conference opponents. Better yet, over the last two seasons, Miami has also covered the spread in all 12 games against opponents from the Southwest division.
Odds:
Tip: Houston Rockets at $1.26
