Houston at Miami 7:30 ET
Rockets (+) over Heat- It was been two weeks since the Heat played at home on Christmas Day when they downed the Embiid-less 76ers. Winning at home is a must in the NBA as getting road wins are so difficult as the Heat and Houston can attest. Miami has a winning home record of 9-6 but are not so hot as home favorites going 5-10 ATS something the Rockets can make note of as they are 1-10 SU but a 7-6 ATS on the road. Once again the crew from South Beach has a number of key personnel sidelined because of nagging injuries including Jimmy Butler. The Rockets are off their Megabucks win Saturday night 122-118 over Milwaukee and this is the first of a six-game road trip. The young club from our space center are eager to prove they can win on the road. Take HOUSTON!
