The Miami Heat and San Antonio Spurs get the spotlight on Friday night as they meet in a game televised on ESPN.  The Spurs have been extremely successful against the Heat, winning 30 of their 42 meetings all-time and 20 of 21 games in San Antonio.  The last time the Heat won in San Antonio was back in 1996.  Last year the Spurs won both meetings against Miami. SBG Global reports that early NBA betting has the public taking Spurs at Home. 

The Spurs have not treated gamblers well so far this season going 0-4 ATS.  The Spurs have definitely missed guard Manu Ginobili.  They needed a career high 55 points by Tony Parker just to get by the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday.  The Heat are just 2-2 against the spread this season winning both of their home games against the number but failing to cover both road contests.
