Miami at Cleveland

This is the second straight road game for Miami, as well as its seventh road contest over the last nine games. Miami is not a strong offensive team at #28 in points scored and is getting outscored on the season. Cleveland is home for the third time in four games. Cavaliers guard Dwyane Wade faces his old team here and had 18 points in the last game in returning from a two-game absence. Cleveland is one of the best offensive teams in the NBA, fifth in points scored, sixth in field goal shooting, and #11 from long range. After being overvalued for much of the season the tide has turned, with the Cavaliers covering four of their last five home games against teams with winning road records. The home team is 11-2 ATS when these rivals clash, with Miami 1-6 ATS at Cleveland, so back the short home favorite and play Cleveland.
