The Heat with very difficult matchup against the Nuggets as visitors, but in one of their best moments of the season. Miami has won its last five games while in the middle of a Western tour, which has led them to currently occupy fifth place in the Eastern Conference with a 33-25 record, stalking the New York Knicks in search of that fourth place that offers home-court advantage for the first round of the playoffs.
Denver, meanwhile, is also on a winning streak. The reigning NBA champions have won their last four games. They are third in the West with a 40-19 record, but so far they have not been able to overtake their two Western rivals because they also have won their most recent games: Minnesota Timberwolves (1st with 42-17) have won their last three games, and Oklahoma City Thunder (2nd with 41-17) their last six.
