Heat to Keep Things Tight

We wouldn’t be surprised to see the Miami Heat win and it makes sense to take +3 on the spread at 1.95 when they go up against the Boston Celtics.

Expert NBA Analysis

Getting the lowdown on injuries and studying the form guide are important duties ahead of making NBA picks. We also place great emphasis on the stats and a data-led approach can be effective.

Key Celtics vs Heat stats:

  • The +3 line has been covered by Heat in all of their last 5 games at home.
  • The +3 line has been covered by Heat in 8 of their last 10 games.
  • The +3 line has been covered by Heat in 6 consecutive games at home.
  • The -3 line hasn’t been covered by Celtics in 3 of their last 5 games.
  • The -3 line hasn’t been covered by Celtics in 2 consecutive games.
  • The +3 line has been covered by Heat in 4 consecutive games against Celtics.

The market might have underrated the underdogs in this NBA contest and 1.95 makes appeal considering they are +3 on the spread. Back them to cover the line.
