1.88Tip and bets
Bookmakers experts consider Boston to be the clear favorite of the upcoming match. In their opinion, Milwaukee will not have many chances of success. And that is true. Rivers' team has more or less improved its game after Antetokounmpo recovery from injury, but so far it has not been able to compete on equal terms with serious opponents. The Bucks have lost all their matches with the leaders this season. The Celtics will have to win over their main rival for the third time since the start of the championship.
Our prediction is a Boston victory with a handicap of (-6.5) points including overtime at 1.78
Bet on individual total
Boston has been showing decent performance this season. The average is 120.1 points per game. And in home games it is a little lower - 119.9. And this time everything is going to the fact that the Celtics will be able to significantly improve their statistics.
Our prediction is Boston individual total over 119.5 points including overtime at 2.08
Bet on the player
Brown played 70 games in the regular season that ended and averaged 23.0 points per game. This season, his rate is already noticeably higher — 25.2. The 28-year-old forward has definitely not lost his basic skills. The American basketball player will be able to cause a lot of trouble for the opponent defense.
Our prediction is Brown total points over 25.5 points including overtime at 1.87
