Los Angeles at Miami

This is a 3,000 mile road trip for the L.A. Clippers, the third leg of a four-game trek. They are on a 1-6 SU/ATS skid, plus have dropped eight of 12 with four of the setbacks being by double digits. Los Angeles had to play last night, losing at Dallas, so this is their third game in four nights - all on the road. Meanwhile, Miami is rested, strong on defense, fourth in the NBA in points allowed, and second in field goal shooting defense. Miami is on a 15-7 spread run, including 10-3 ATS against a team with a winning record. The Heat is also 9-3 ATS versus the Western Conference. The Heat have won the past three meetings, including a 121-98 road victory over the Clippers earlier this season, so back the rested home team in a great situational spot. Play Miami.
