Things are changing in Miami! The NFL Dolphins went from worst to first in the NFL East and the Heat has gone from a team that won just 15 games a year ago, to one that has already surpassed that total this season at 18-14. They have crept up to No. 15 in my NBA power rankings and right now they are playing about as good as they have all season, winners in six of their last eight. Two of those wins came against a couple of the best teams in the league in the Lakers and the Cavs. They limited two of the NBA's top offenses to 90 ppg in those wins and are getting it done on the defensive end. The Spurs are hot as well claiming wins in 13 of their last 16 games. The road however isn't where they are making strides against the good teams, where they are just 3-4 SU, and two of the three wins were close, as they needed OT for one, and the other decided by a single point. The Spurs have always been a defense first team, and the last three on the road against .500 or better teams have gone UNDER. The Heat has shown the ability to not only beat the top teams at home, but hold down the offenses as well, and I like Miami here, with the UNDER as well.
