Boston Celtics

Boston Celtics defeated Miami Heat (116-99) in the fourth game of the NBA Playoffs Eastern Conference Semifinals. The series score now stands at 3-1 in favor of Miami. Jason Tatum played a key role in the victory, recording a double-double with 33 points and 11 rebounds. Jaylen Brown was the second-highest scorer with 17 points.

Under the guidance of coach Joe Mazzulla, the team finished second in the regular season in the Eastern Conference. The participation of backup player Malcolm Brogdon in the upcoming game is questionable.

Miami Heat

Miami Heat finished seventh in the regular season in the Eastern Conference and made it to the playoffs through the play-in tournament. In the game on May 24, Jimmy Butler was the top performer for the Heat, scoring 29 points. Gabe Vincent contributed 17 points. Tyler Herro, a starting lineup player who averages 20.5 points per game, is still sidelined due to injury. Vincent's participation in the upcoming game is also uncertain.

Prediction

According to bookmakers' analysts, Boston Celtics are clear favorites in the upcoming match, and it's hard to disagree with them. The Celtics secured a convincing victory on the road, and now the series has returned to Boston. The Celtics have the ability to dominate Miami Heat on their home court at TD Garden.

Our prediction is a victory for Boston Celtics with a handicap of (-7.5) points at odds of 1.78.

On average, Boston Celtics score 117 points in home games, while Miami Heat score 108 points on the road. Both teams have been entertaining their fans with attacking play in the current series. In two out of the four games, the total score exceeded 230 points. However, this time, a victory for the Heat would secure their spot in the championship finals. It is unlikely that the game will be high-scoring.

Our prediction is a total score of less than 217.5 points, including overtime, at odds of 2.10.
