The "Heat" play their first game after the All Star break below sea level tonight against the Disgruntled Pelicans. The latter will be playing their second game back-to-back at home after blowing out the Rockettes last night. The "Pelicans" have no reason to be disgruntled! Four straight Ws, 8-2 in last ten.They are 34-22 and headed to the playoffs, currently as the 5th seed in the Western Conference.

The "Heat" are 8th in the East, a half game behind Orlando with a game in hand, one game behind Indiana Marymount in 7th with two in hand, and two behind plummeting Procedure Addresses in 5th with one game in hand. 

Terry Rozier is out tonight with that sprained knee and Tyler is a GTD. Don't know if newbie Delon Wright is available. This is a game that Miami should win and must win to make the big push envisioned here over the regular season's last third. N.O. is -3.
