MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Fans of the Miami Heat received a rare treat on Tuesday night.

Back home for the first time in over two weeks, the underdog Heat pulled off a big upset win over the Houston Rockets.

The win marked the beginning of the second half of Miami’s schedule. Game number 42.

Currently the Heat hold an unimpressive 12-30 record, good enough for 29th out of 30 NBA teams.

With a lack of true star power (no offense to Hassan Whiteside and Goran Dragic) and any semblance of a consistent supporting cast, not to mention a huge injury problem that has swept through the locker room, it’s no surprise that Miami is having such a down season.
