Advice and prediction

The writing is on the wall with this contest, with the Action Network reporting 96% of the money bet on this contest favoring the Heat to win. Such a lopsided balance reflects the many key players sitting or a risk to sit in a game with built-in revenge factors for Miami given they lost the last contest at home.

Prediction: Miami Heat 133, Boston Celtics 112
