Boston Celtics

After a convincing win in game number two in Miami, the Boston Celtics seemed to be superior to the Heat, but that all changed on Saturday night. Erik Spoelstra’s team came to “TD Garden” determined to bounce back and they did it. The Celtics opened the game very poorly defensively and allowed the opponent to make a huge difference in the first half. As has been the case countless times in this playoffs, the Celtics did not give up and they even had a chance for a big comeback in the fourth quarter, however the Heat resisted. Now, the pressure has shifted to the side of the Celtics and failure in game number four is not an option for them. Jayson Tatum played by far his weakest game in this year playoffs and we can expect to see his reaction this time. Derrick White also had a bad night after missing game number two due to the birth of his child. In order to win, the Celtics will have to show the intensity from the second half of the last game, with a much better shooting percentage.

Miami Heat

Before the start of the season, only a few people could have guessed that the Miami Heat would finish in first place in the Eastern Conference. In this playoffs, they confirm that their position is more than deserved. After an embarrassing night in game number two, they showed character and pride and break the Celtics in Boston, so now they have home-court advantage once again. In the first half, Heat took full advantage of the fact that Robert Williams did not play, and they constantly attacked the paint through Bam Adebayo and thus came up with easy points. The great fear for all Heat fans happened when Jimmy Butler got injured. Although he did not play in the second half, reports say the injury is not serious and Butler is expected to play in game number four. P.J. Tucker and Max Strus shot extraordinarily in “TD Garden” and a good percentage of their shots is crucial for the Heat in this series. This team did what they want when they came to Boston for game number three, but now they will have a chance to seal the fate of the Celtics with another victory.

H2H

Six times in total these two teams have played against each other this season and H2H is 3-3. In this series of Eastern Conference finals, the current score is 2-1 for the Miami Heat. In playoffs this year, the Boston Celtics are 4-3 at home, while the Heat is 3-3 at road.

Injuries

Robert Williams is questionable for Boston Celtics, but he is likely to play after he missed game number three. Jimmy Butler and Kyle Lowry are questionable for Miami Heat, but it would be a surprise if both of them wouldn’t start in game number four.

Boston Celtics vs. Miami Heat Prediction

Boston Celtics played the best in this playoffs every time when it was most needed. Now, they will have to show pride and character once again, and their opponents have problems with injuries so that is a chance to tie the series at 2-2.

and

Last game we had Al Horford Over 10.5 Points and he ended on 20 points, which is why they upped the line by a point. We still believe this one to be quite low and would have it around the 12.5 mark for the remaining of the series, simply because of how the match-ups work in this series.

Pick: Al Horford Over 11.5 Points
Odds: 1.86
