1.88Tip and bets
Bookmakers experts consider Miami to be the clear favorite of the upcoming match. In their opinion, Toronto will have very little chance of success. And that true. This season, the Heat have been playing well away from home against not the most formidable opponents. However, the Raptors will definitely not give up the match without a fight. The meeting promises to be a tough one with a lot of fighting.
Our prediction is a Toronto victory with a handicap of (+10.5) points, taking into account overtime, at 2.05
Bet on individual total
Miami has not been showing very high performance this season. The average is 111.1 points per game. And in away games it is even a little higher - 112.9. This time everything is going to the fact that the Heat will not be able to significantly improve their statistics.
Our prediction is Miami individual total under 117.5 points including overtime at 2.08
Bet on the player
Hero played 42 games in the regular season that ended and averaged 20.6 points per game. This season, his rate is already noticeably higher — 23.6. The 24-year-old guard has definitely not lost his basic skills. The American basketball player will definitely be able to cause a lot of trouble for the opponent defense.
Our prediction is Simons' total points over 17.5 including overtime at 1.87
