Boston Celtics vs Miami Heat 05/29/2022 Betting Odds
Boston Celtics Betting
The Boston Celtics will continue to rely on Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. But compared to previous games, veteran big man Al Horford was significantly absent. He finished with only 3 points and nine rebounds, unusual numbers from 35-year-old veteran who has been performing well in the playoffs before Game 6. The Cs need to play better and seize control of the boards once more, not to mention play good defense on players like Jimmy Butler.
Players to watch: Jayson Tatum SF 17 GP 17 GS 40.8 MIN 27.1 PTS 1 OR 5.5 DR 6.5 REB 5.9 AST 1.2 STL 0.9 BLK 4.4 TO 3.1 PF 1.3 AST/TO 15.97 PER

Miami Heat Betting
The Miami Heat will have to will themselves once more if they want to book another ticket to the NBA Finals. After a couple of mediocre games, Butler made up for it with an explosive game. He finished with a game-high 47 points that prevented the South Beach club from getting swept. But with bigger stakes in Game 7, Butler will need more help from his teammates if they are to set a date with the Golden State Warriors for the 2022 NBA title.
Players to Watch: Jimmy Butler SF 16 GP 16 GS 36.3 MIN 26.9 PTS 2.5 OR 4.8 DR 7.3 REB 4.8 AST 2.1 STL 0.7 BLK 1.5 TO 1.4 PF 3.2 AST/TO 25.21 PER
