Point Spread: 3.00 | -110.00 Miami (Away)
Result: Loss
Miami is 7th in the NBA in scoring and defense and now rested I expect a big night from LeBron James. The Miami Heat hope their leader will be well-rested for a matchup against the San Antonio Spurs,. Miami has only lost back-to-back games twice this season. The Spurs usually struggle on National TV games for some reason. The Spurs have not played much at home over the last month but they have won their last four games here and while the 21-8 home record looks solid, it is littered with cupcake wins as 13 of those have come against teams likely not making the playoffs this season and overall they have struggled against the top teams. San Antonio has gone 9-11 against teams ranked within the top ten in power rankings and it is 0-9 ATS this season playing against teams with a winning percentage of .700 or better. And we mentioned revenge but the Spurs are just 2-14 ATS this season when trying to revenge a loss. On the other hand Miam is coming off a loss at Houston on Tuesday, but LeBron was tired after putting up 62 the previous night. The Heat never led in that game and that will only make them hungrier here. Miami has been the best team in the NBA following a loss over the last two seasons as it is 30-7 in its 37 games following a defeat. I'm backing the Heat here to get the win
