SBG Global Opening Line: Jazz – 2.5

Most everyone wrote off the Miami Heat after they lost Dwyane Wade but the Heat are proving people wrong. Miami is 6-0 at home since losing Wade and they go for their 13th straight win at American Airlines Arena when they host the Utah Jazz. The Heat have won six in a row overall and 14 of their last 18. Miami hasn't lost at home since Jan. 21st against Dallas but will have a tough task tonight, with the Jazz holding on as slight favorites with the gambling public at SBG Global.

Miami is coming off a 106-104 win over Washington on Sunday. That victory pulled the Heat within one game of the Southeast Division lead. The Heat are four games ahead of seventh-place Indiana in the Eastern Conference standings. "I think they realize that they are moving ahead of some of the teams, and there are still teams in front of them," coach Pat Riley said. "We have a lot of work to do here in order to get something we want. We have to win now to have a chance." "I think all of us have been playing really well," Gary Payton said. "With the eight-man rotation we have now, it's been a big plus for us. Everybody knows their role as we come off the bench. If we come out and play like that every night, then it's going be hard to beat us."

The Utah Jazz are 1.5 point favorites with a total 192 of at SBG Global sportsbook.

The Jazz are also hot of late. They have won six straight and they have also won four straight on the road where they are 18-12 this season. Utah has the fourth best record in the NBA. The Jazz are coming off a 96-86 win over New Orleans. "We're just playing good basketball right now," point guard Deron Williams said. "We're competing. We're not getting out to the bad starts that we used to get out to, for the most part. And we're finishing games, finishing teams off." Carlos Boozer and Mehmet Okur have combined to average 39.3 points and 18.8 rebounds per game.

The Heat have won six in a row against Utah, including a 119-110 victory at Salt Lake City in the first meeting of the season January 13th.
