Miami at Boston

Premium Pick

The Miami Heat has appeared flustered on offense at times in this series. Dwayne Wade is just 38-96 for less than 40% in his last six games vs. Boston, and Chris Bosh is just 11-34 in his last three. It has caused this Miami team to go through some substantial offensive droughts, forcing LeBron James to take a ton of shots. Bosh should help defending the interior and the Heat are certainly capable of playing lockdown defense. With everything on the line here you can be sure that is where their focus will be. The Celtics have been no slouches on the defensive end either. They have caused problems for Miami who has averaged less than 81 points per game here in their last six trips to the Garden. The Celtics have produced 9 of their last 13 as a dog to the UNDER, and their ability to defend the Heat has led to an 18-8-1 mark to the UNDER in their last 27 meetings in Boston. Ugly prevails in this one, so play the UNDER.
