Miami hasn't covered a game vs. Dallas since
2003, the Mavericks have the second-best home
ATS Margin in the NBA this season (average game
has covered by +2.3 points) and Dallas also has
the best point-spread record in the 2005-06
post-season (12-5 ATS). They have more speed,
a more flexible roster and rotation, and
obviously, the coach has been able to make
good decisions with those tools. Gotta give them
the Game 1 edge.
