Miami Heat Betting Preview 


The Miami Heat have been in decent form as they’ve won four of their last seven games overall, but they will be hoping to bounce back in this one after getting thrashed by the Hawks in a 127-115 loss on Tuesday. Jaime Jacquez Jr led the team in scoring with 21 points, eight rebounds and three assists, Simone Fontecchio and Pelle Larsson each scored 18 points while Bam Adebayo chipped in with 16 points and 14 rebounds. As a team, the Heat shot 44 percent from the field and eight of 32 from the 3-point line, but their problems were on the defensive end as they got outscored by 67-50 in the first half and as hard as they tried, the Heat couldn’t threaten in the second half and trailed by as many as 23 points in the fourth quarter. 


Boston Celtics Betting Preview 


Meanwhile, the Boston Celtics have been in great form as they’ve won nine of their last 12 games overall and they will be hoping to build on a four-game win streak after smashing the Rockets in a 114-93 road win on Wednesday. Derrick White led the team with 28 points and eight assists, Payton Pritchard added 27 points and seven assists off the bench while Luka Garza chipped in with 19 points. As a team, the Celtics shot 43 percent from the field and 19 of 51 from the 3-point line, but this win was set up by their defense as they restricted the Rockets to just 42 points in the first half, before the Celtics opened the third quarter on a 28-6 run to put the game to bed early. 


Miami v Boston Free Prediction


The Heat are still playing without Tyler Herro, while the Celtics have ruled out Jayson Tatum once again. The Heat were starting to build some momentum before they got stopped in their tracks by the Hawks on Tuesday, but it’s the Celtics who enter this contest as the hotter team, especially following their dominant win over the Rockets on Wednesday. These teams have already met twice this season with the Celtics winning both meetings and I think we’re about to see them seal the season series with a comfortable win and cover at this modest line.

Peter Tran's Pick: Boston -6.5
