Miami should not be underestimated as they have already reached the NBA Finals. In terms of experience, Miami has the advantage, as their coach has already appeared in the NBA Finals six times, if I'm not mistaken. So, while the Nuggets may have a stronger roster than Miami, in the NBA Finals, I believe experience is also crucial for a team's success.

Yeah, in paper and in records, Denver has the advantage with their big guy Jokic and then the resurgence of Jamal Murray, and then they have Porter Jr and then Aaron Gordon. But then again, no one thought that the Heat will reach the finals again with this undrafted lineup but they upset the number 1 and number 2 seed din the East so this is a difficult series to predict. And if we are looking for the underdogs Heat again, then I wouldn't be surprised if they make it and become the NBA champions.

The pressure was not on the Miami Heat for this game you can see that the Heat was super composed while playing and the Boston Celtics are now the ones that are under pressure for this game, they don't look composed in this game, while the Miami heat was more composed and surely getting those needed shots, It was a sad ending for the Boston Celtics after that 0 - 3 deficit and tying the game until game 7 the Boston Celtics have a loss that opportunity to win the Finals there are 15 turnover for the Celtics while 12 Turnovers for the Heat,

Boston Celtics VS Miami Heat SCORE 84 - 103 - LOST

I think the Celtics are not a defensive team anymore last year they have a crazy defense that surely many don't want to mess but right now they have switched to an offensive team and added to this Jayson Tatum got a bad ankle toward the game so he surely has a hardtime making points, and this bad luck continues until the 4th quarter, Bam Adebayo has a double-double of 10 rebounds and 12 points, Caleb Martin has a double-double of 10 rebounds and 26 points while Jimmy butler got 28 points winning this game,

Denver Nuggets have arguably been the best team in this playoffs, but the 8th seeded Miami Heat aren't just going to concede defeat either, The Nuggets will be facing their toughest opponent of the series so far, and it will be an entirely the different ball game compared to what the Nuggets faced against Lakers, they sure aren't going have it any easy this time around.

What you guys think on Denver-Miami series? What you would bet on? I think Denver is in advantage and will try to play agressive and make Miami take hard shots, so I would play Miami under first game.

201 total points is a low number for me and betting for the Miami Heat is also part of the reason. Whenever they win it's always an over, base on their stats in the first three games.
1/2 for me but still a win due to the x3.60 for the Heat.
201.5 was not hit because of the blowout and the Celtics cannot even answer back in three points made. They shot really badly behind the distant line, 9/42 which is not a good number. 21 percent. Ouch!

Jimmy Butler won the Larry Bird Eastern Conference Finals MVP. But it's not done yet, you can see in his face that there's more work to do and I like it. Denver Nuggets has more weapons than the Boston Celtics and they will have to play harder if they want the championship so badly.
Anyway, for all those who bet for the Miami Heat ML at all 7 games, we are still winners. Most of it is an underdog bet so we made a bit of a profit in this whole series.
In the next series though, I may not bet for them unless the handicap is inviting enough.
Congratulations to all the winners, upon browsing, I think most of us took the risk of betting for the underdog. Nice!

My first bet won.
Waiting for second bet. But Marcus Smart still 0 points

Game 6 win for Boston was absolute luck. There was nothing that Heat could have done on the last possession. Anyway they are one stop from the ultimate choke. No matter how talented Boston players are I still believe that if Miami defends well the perimeter they would be able to reach the finals. Yes, Tatum and Brown can score from anywhere, but Butler will torture Celtics' D. Celtics did the easiest part (coming back from 0-3) but winning game 7 even on home court is something else. Let the best team win. Hopefully there is a lot of drama and at least two overtimes.

Hello Guys.

My picks for tonight.

Marcus Smart 13,5 Points Over 1,82 Odds.

Caleb Martin 14,5 Points Over 1,88 Odds.

Good luck guys.

∆ D. White 2+ 3pts / J. Brown 2+ assists / J. Butler 1+ steals / C. Martin 1+ 3pts @2.07 ∆  won

As much as i want Miami to make the Finals, they blew it, not happening. Looking at the officials tonight, NBA sure as hell ain't helping them either. It's Scott Foster and Tony Brothers, yikes, a double whammy...only missing Eric Lewis in there to complete the Holy Trinity of home cooking.

D. White 2+ 3pt - 6/L6 avg. 3.5 3pts at 53%
J. Brown 2+ ast - 6/L6 avg. 3.2 assists against the Heat
J. Butler 1+ stl - 6/L6 avg. 2.5 steals (15 total)
C. Martin 1+ 3pt - 6/L6 avg. 3.0 3pts at 46%

I would prefer a Denver Nuggets vs Boston Celtics NBA finals than Denver vs Heat finals, That said, Game 6 was really a close one as the final suggest imo, Boston Celtics led all the way and Miami Heat had their first lead after about 4-5 minutes into game in the 4th Quarter and Boston Celtics had double digit lead for majority of the night, The Heat were just rather able to crawl their way back into the game and almost stole the show right there before that moment of magic by Derrick White.

Boston Celtics should be able to get this done quite easily but playoffs Jimmy Bucket might something else in store for us, he's been off maximum efficiency recently so let's see if he can find his rhythm tonight.

Which leads me to think that if Hear really do deserve this then they already have that ticket to the Finals already but for some reasons they're stuck and looks like the Celtics will gonna make history just like what the Nuggets did too. History makers in the Finals is something not happened before I think.

weeks ago if my memory serves me correctly, I posted that it was impossible for a team that had already lost in 3 legs to manage to win 3 consecutive games and put the series tied, honestly this is something that I did not expect, and a big surprise, what leaves me most shocked is that in the last game the celtics did very well in the first period in which they won by a very comfortable difference of points, it was 5 points of difference, in the second period the celtics dropped in performance, and they lost by a difference of 1 point, in the third period the celtics won by a difference of 3 points, but the celtics won in the fourth period by a difference of 6 points, so it was a very disputed game, but it was a very good performance by the celtics

in the first 3 games the celtics lost by a big difference of points which already suggested that the celtics didn't have any chance of winning the heat, but everything changed in the game 4 when the celtcs won by a big difference of points and in the game 5 celtcs also won again by a big difference in points, only in game 6 and that was a very balanced game, in my opinion I see celtics leaving this game with victory which would be a great milestone case, it is not easy to become one serie in which I was at a big disadvantage, I hope celtcs win this game

This an advantage for the bettors especially for the Heat lovers out there because the team has been listed as a heavy underdog in the game that will happen later. But for me, I think I'll just bet live just to be sure because even if we judge some of their games that has happened recently, we cannot still deny that fact that the game will be unpredictable later. I mean, anything can happen, could be a close game or could be a blow out game by either of the team. So yes, good luck to those who got an advance bet and I'll just settle mine later live.

I got the under on this game.  The only thing that scares me is that Celtics run and gun.  But my guess is everyone is going to be a little tight and each possession calculated.  Defensive pressure is going to be high.  I got this as Boston 105 Miami 91.  Why you got the over any reason? 

I think those are good bets.  While playing in Boston has it's advantages for the Celtics and they were already favored to win the series, the odds are just not very exciting to bet the Celtics to win.  So while I think that the Celtics will probably win tonight and advance to the Finals, the smart bet still seems like the one you're making above.  I also like that you get your money back so long as it's a close game even if the Heat loses.  You just have to watch out for the Celtics getting an early lead and then the Heat throwing away their chances by missing threes and letting the Celtics turn the game into a blowout.

They could talk about it and all, but the thing is, they already lost the game and there is nothing they could do as I think it was already agreed before they even moved the clock as it will be a big misunderstanding it they will just move it without consulting somebody about it. So anyway, this will be a do or die game for the both teams and honestly, I definitely did not expect that Game 7 will be much needed in this series especially after the Heat had a 3-0 lead but they blew their chance of, and here they are, fighting for their survival.

For my bet, I will be leaning on the Miami Heat @ 3.60 to win the game and I'll be adding some little handicap of Heat +6.5 @ 2.12, just in-case it will be needed.

Yes, the Miami Heat surely have a chance to get the win here but for me, the Boston Celtics are doing great in bringing the Miami Heat under their pressure, and Boston is using this opportunity in making great games, right now even with the zone defense for the Miami Heat the Celtics is great in providing outside shots, in the 4th quarter both team have many attempts that don't make into points the pressure is really getting in both teams surely for Jayson Tatum and Jimmy Butler for game 7 I really like the most deserving team to win this and I am making my bet for now,

My picks for game 7 for the NBA semi-finals

Boston Celtics vs Miami Heat

The Boston Celtics are playing the Miami Heat back at TD Garden, for game 7 of this series, the Boston Celtics Key injuries are Danilo Gallinari (knee) and Malcolm Brogdon (forearm) and they are not out for this season, while the Miami Heat's Key injuries are Victor Oladipo (knee) and are out and can not play for the Heat, Tyler Herro (hand) and Gabe Vincent (ankle) are both out for this season, game 6 was truly one close game for both teams if the Miami Heat would likely do zone defense on the Boston Celtics the Celtics is having a hardtime making their score, but the Celtics is likely shooting from outside the perimeter to penetrate that defense, for me the Boston Celtics made a great job in defending Butler so my picks for this game is the Boston Celtics,

I'll only be backing the Heat ML based on the odds, but I'm not expecting the Heat to pull off an upset here just after letting 3 elimination games slip through their hands, it's going to be tougher going to Boston Celtics' TD Garden to win a game 7, not especially when the team will be full of energy and all the momentum of the home crowd, but at the same time we've seeing crazier scenarios unfold in the NBA, whichever team wins today, it's still going to be an upset regardless, one might just going down as the first time in the entire NBA history.

Everything really transpired on the Heat to lose that game, like you mentioned the clock, it was critical error? or it is that the referee knows, in any case, we really don't know what will be the scenario on the precious seconds remaining. I also have one scenario in mind wherein if by chance that put back by White will just send the game into overtime and the Heat has another chance?

Anyhow, Boston on the verge now, the whole narrative has change for the Heat.

But don't count them yet, just saying, if the Celtics is the lucky one on game 6, maybe the tide with change for the Heat.
