Why Bet on the Miami Heat?

Although the Heat is coming off a 130-124 win from the Celtics, they have to keep the momentum going. The Celtics are expected to put up a fight, so the Heat will have to be on their toes from start to finish. It’s been an underwhelming 2020-21 campaign for the Heat following their run to the NBA Finals last year. COVID-19 protocols and injuries have held back the team, but now looking better after winning nine of their last 12 games.

The Heat has a good balance of experience and hungry young talent. Jimmy Butler is at the center of it all and is the man to watch in this Heat vs. Celtics game. The forward recorded 26 points, 11 assists, and 8 rebounds in his recent outing. The starters also hit double-digits.

Duncan Robinson had 22 points to his name, Bam Adebayo scored 20 points and added 6 rebounds. And after being out of the action for some time, Tyler Herro is getting back on track after contributing 12 points and 3 rebounds in 17 minutes of playtime.

Why Bet on the Boston Celtics?

The Celtics are now on a two-game losing streak and trying to get out of this sticky situation that can potentially put them in the play-in tournament. This is crunch time for Brad Stevens and his team.

In their last game against the Heat, Kemba Walker covered for the absent Jaylen Brown. Well, Brown is certainly not going to play in this Heat vs. Celtics game, as he’s just been ruled out for the rest of the season because of a torn ligament in his left wrist.

Jayson Tatum will most likely lead the charge for the Celtics once again. Although he shows signs of inconsistency every once in a while, the Celtics have been relying on him for much of the season. He needs to step his game up to get past the Heat.

The forward scored 29 points with 5 rebounds and 6 assists in his last game. Furthermore, we can look forward to Tatum working alongside Evan Fournier, who was previously the top scorer with 30 points to his name along with 3 rebounds and 8 assists.
