Betting on the Miami Heat
Thanks to a three-game winning streak, the Heat have a chance to put their record at .500 for the first time in a long time. However, in order to achieve it, they will not only have to do it against the team with the best record in the league, but also as visitors, a condition in which they have won just two of nine games.
However, the Heat could head into this matchup with confidence, considering that the team has won in three of its last four visits to the TD Garden,and that their most recent victory came as visitors, by a score of 106-98 against the Atlanta Hawks. In that match, Bam Adebayo scored 32 points and Tyler Herro recorded a triple-double of 11 points, 10 assists and 11 rebounds.
Even though the Heat has been an effective defensive team, averaging 108.9 points allowed per game (the seventh best in the league), Jimmy Butler’s absence has significantly affected their offense, which is the second worst in the NBA with an average of 108.4 points scored.
Betting on the Boston Celtics
The Celtics seem to have no intention of slowing down and continue to lead the NBA after a superb 105-140 win over the Charlotte Hornets last Monday, with Jayson Tatum having an exquisite performance of 35 points and just over 29 minutes of play, while, Marcus Smart recorded a double-double of 22 points and 12 assists.
That commitment has also turned the Celtics into the league’s best offensive team, with an average of 120.4 points scored per game. and 49.0% shooting from the field, while the defense has allowed a decent average of 113.3 points allowed per game.
Although their recent home record against the Heat suggests that the Celtics should be cautious in this matchup, their home performance thus far says otherwise, as they have won 10 of the 11 games played at home..
JefeBet Prediction
While the Heat have shown considerable improvement in their performance, circumstances do not seem to be in their favor this time around, given the problems they have had away from home, and that they will be visiting a venue where almost no one has come out alive this season.
This is precisely one of the main reasons for the Celtics’ success this campaign and last. In addition, even without being at home, Boston has been a very solid offensive team, so it will be a good challenge for a visiting defense that has been solid.
The Celtics are on an impressive run of form, and no opponent can stop them for now, much less a Heat that is missing a piece as important as Jimmy Butler.We expect Boston to be strong once again at home and take a comfortable victory.
Prediction: Boston Celtics Spread.
