LiontipsMiami vs Milwaukee. Predictions and Betting Tips for NBA
Command Analysis
Miami had a decent performance against the Bucks only in the first match of the series. Back then, Eric Spoelstra's players lost 107-109. In the next two matches Jimmy Butler and his partners had a subpar performance and were just not looking like themselves. Especially humiliating was the home loss by an 84-113 score.
Heat leaders couldn't contain the opponents despite the best effort. Only Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo performed on their level, but their effort was not enough for the win.
It looks like Milwaukee wants to take revenge for the loss in the previous season. Back then it was Miami who knocked Bucks out of the tournament. Current playoff matches are going by the same scenario, but now Bucks are on the winning side. A year ago Bucks managed to claim one win after three defeats, but then lost the series by a 1-4 score.
In the previous match Mike Budenholzer's side recorded a win thanks to the role players. Portis, Forbes and Lopez performed great in this game and each of them scored more than 10 points and that helped the trio of Middleton, Holiday and Antetokounmpo.

Tip and bets
It looks like nobody believes in Miami right now. Spoelstra's players will play at home, but despite that they are underdogs by bookmakers' choice. However, we recommend you to risk and bet on the hosts. In the previous season Heat without their key players managed to defeat Lakers in the final. They can motivate themselves for key matches. They have nowhere to retreat, so we can expect a surprise from Miami.
Our prediction - Miami to win (Including OT)
In 2 out of 3 matches in this series teams scored at least 216 points. In the current situation Miami needs to go forward and try to find their luck under the Bucks' rim. Hosts won't sit on defense and will try to lead the game.
Second prediction - total over 216 points
