Miami Heat

The "Miami Heat" suffered a defeat against the "Denver Nuggets" (94-109) on their home court in the third game. The series score stands at 2-1 in favor of the Colorado team. Jimmy Butler was the top scorer for the Heat, contributing 28 points, while Bam Adebayo achieved a double-double with 22 points and 17 rebounds.

The "Miami Heat" finished in seventh place in the Eastern Conference during the regular season and secured their spot in the main playoff bracket through the play-in tournament. In the previous stage, coached by Erik Spoelstra, they sensationally eliminated the "Boston Celtics" (4-3), who finished second in the conference. Tyler Herro, a starting lineup player, will miss the upcoming match due to injury. He sustained the injury early in the playoffs.

Denver Nuggets

In the June 8th game, the "Denver Nuggets" had two players with triple-doubles. Nikola Jokic put up incredible numbers with 32 points, 21 rebounds, and ten assists, while Jamal Murray recorded 34 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists. The Nuggets swept the "Los Angeles Lakers" in the Western Conference semifinals (4-0). The team from Colorado is heading into the upcoming match with a full lineup, as all their key players are healthy and eager to compete.

Prediction

Bookmakers' analysts consider the "Denver Nuggets" as the clear favorite in the fourth game of the series. It is reasonable to agree with them. It is evident that Mike Malone has finally found the right keys to unlock the defense of the Miami Heat. The Nuggets are more than capable of securing their second consecutive victory and increasing their lead in the final showdown.

Our prediction is a victory for the "Denver Nuggets" with a handicap (-3.5) points at odds of 1.88.

The games in the final series have been low-scoring. This is quite understandable as teams are playing with caution, focusing more on defense. The overall scoring efficiency has noticeably decreased in the playoffs. In the three games of the current series, the total score has not exceeded 220 points. It seems that once again, the players will not entertain the fans with high-scoring plays.

Our prediction is a total score under 212.5 points, including overtime, at odds of 1.74.
