Miami at Utah

The Miami Heat have already won in Phoenix, Portland and Orlando this season, so no reason to feel they can't hang inside of an inflated number in Utah. The Jazz homecourt invincibility has taken a hit from dropping just four here in '07, jumping to eight in '08 and they have dropped six here already well before the All-Star break.  However, this is still heavy chalk vs a playoff caliber team. Then when you consider that the Utah homecourt nastery was certainly not reigning over the Heat. The Heat have not only won each of the last six in Miami, they have come to Utah the last five years and come away with a 5-0 ATS mark, that also shows them at 4-1 straight up! I'll gladly back a team that is 10-1 straight up vs this Utah team, grabbing a bushel of points to go with it. Miami gets the call in this one.
