Never easy to beat the same team back-to-back games in their gym, but the Heat are healthy (minus Victor Oladipo), while Boston is without Jaylen Brown (for the season) and Robert Williams. That Brown season-ending news from Monday has to be gutting to the Celtics players, which could lead to a flat effort. Both Brown and Williams are good defenders, and the Heat hung 79 on Boston in the first half of Sunday's win with Brown out and Williams barely playing. The C's have been a bottom-tier defensive team for a few weeks. A Heat victory clinches the season series and would keep them out of the play-in tournament. A William Hill Sportsbook bettor put $10K on the Heat ML. We agree (but can't afford that).

We just saw this game on Sunday with the Heat dominating in a 130-124 win. The game wasn’t that close, but it did go Over again for the Celtics. They’ve gone Over in nine straight, and it’s been the Celtics initiating the fast pace as they try new ways to find out who they are. The Heat have gone Over in seven of their last eight games. Jaylen Brown is out for the season, which is bad news for the Celtics' playoff hopes. Nothing on the side; just the Over.
