Result:
LOSS

Miami covered the first meeting this season, losing 102-98 as a 7.5-point underdog at home, and the Clippers are just 5-16 ATS their last 21 games against Eastern Conference teams. The Heat comes off a loss in Los Angeles as the Lakers shot 50.0 percent and Miami was only eight of 32 from beyond the arc. Willie Reed scored 22 points and grabbed 12 rebounds to lead the Heat, and James Johnson came off the bench to score 20 points. The Clippers have won three straight over Phoenix, Memphis, and Sacramento after losing six in a row. The road team has covered the spread five of the last seven meetings, and the Clippers can't be trusted to cover this high a number. Take the points with the Heat.
