Boston vs. Miami

This is a key game for seeding, with Boston looking to lock in the third slot and Miami trying to stay ahead of Indiana. That means defense will take center stage, and both coaches are terrific at teaching and demanding intense defense. Miami is #11 defensively allowing 108.9 points per contest, and its zone defense will be a challenge for the Celtics. Boston's Kemba Walker is being worked into the lineup after knee problems and will be limited to 22 minutes or less. The Celtics' defense is third in points allowed (107.3 points per game) and fourth in field goal shooting (44.3%). These teams last met in January in a 109-101 Boston win, as they held Miami to 37% shooting. And when these rivals clash, the total has not topped 223 over the last 10 meetings. And in the last two meetings, it hasn't topped 210. Play this game to stay UNDER the total.
