<h2 id="bd1e0">Prediction for Heat vs Celtics</h2>
<p>Game 1 was an absolute masterclass by the Miami Heat, as they came into Boston and played a perfect game to not only cover, but win outright, 123-116, to make a statement to start the series.</p>
<p>It was a team win, as 6 players for Miami scored 15+ points, which ties a NBA playoff record but the star of the show was , of course, Jimmy Butler.</p>
<figure class="embed strchf-type-embed regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center">

<p>Playoff Jimmy has taken over game after game to lead the Heat on this Cinderella playoff run and it will certainly continue tonight.</p>
<p>If Butler can continue his dominance, on both ends of the floor ( he had 6 steals in Game 1!), the Heat are incredibly tough to beat.</p>
<p>Tonight, the Celtics will have to look to slow down Butler and company but also get their dynamic duo going to look to prevent a tough 2-0 series deficit.</p>
<p>Jayson Tatum was still able to manage 30 points in Game 1 but only took 17 shots and there were multiple possessions in a row where Tatum did not touch the ball.</p>
<p>That won’t happen tonight.</p>
<p>I am looking for a massive bounce back from the Celtics, and that starts with Tatum.</p>
<h2 id="1abes">Best Bet for Heat vs Celtics</h2>
<p>The Celtics were 8.5 point favorites in Game 1 and lost outright. Tonight, the line opened up at 9 for Game 2.</p>
<p>That is very telling and I am going to ride with that.</p>
<p>The Celtics should come out tonight and absolutely ball out. They do not want to go to Miami down 2-0 and I expect them to have made adjustments after Game 1 and feed Tatum and Brown to lead them to a big Game 2 win.</p>
<p>Celtics will cover, and possibly win by 15+ to level the series.</p>

<p>Well, I talked about it above and now it is time to put my money where my mouth is.</p>
<p>I think Tatum has a huge night tonight. He shot poorly, only took 17 shots in Game 1 and STILL managed 30 points to cover his points line.</p>
<p>If Tatum takes his regular 20+ shots (and tonight I think he will) he could flirt with 40 points.</p>
<p>Not much else statistically that points to this play, the rest of it just comes down to the gut.</p>
<p>Tatum masterclass incoming.</p>
