Miami at Houston

A pair of strong defensive teams clash with one being a big underdog. The Heat shoot 37.6% from 3-point land, the eighth-best in the NBA, while the defense is sixth in points given up and 12th in shooting allowed. They've won six of 10 and are on a 2-1 SU/ATS run over the last three games, shutting down Brooklyn (110-95) plus winning at Orlando (89-88) as an underdog. Houston comes off a 113-112 loss at home to Minnesota as a favorite. The offense is 25th in shooting, 29th from area code three, and 25th from the free-throw line. Play Miami.
