(NBA) Boston vs. Miami, 05/19/2022 8:30 PM, Score: 127 - 102
Total: 207.00 | -106.00 Under
Result: Loss
I will bank on the defense in the second game of this series. These are two excellent defensive teams and with Marcus Smart expected to play he should be able to help limit Jimmy Butler who put up 41 pts on Tuesday. Boston went UNDER THE TOTAL in five of its seven games against Milwaukee in the last round. Miami went ‘under’ in four of its six games against Philadelphia. After a high-scoring game in Game 1 of this series, I think that the defense will dominate the second game.
