Jimmy Butler is questionable for Game 2 after spraining his ankle on Sunday when he finished with 25 points and 11 rebounds for Miami. Jalen Brunson and Julius Randle also are listed as questionable for New York due to ankle injuries, but both are likely to play. New York will look to bounce back after missing 27 of 34 from 3-point distance although the Knicks did shoot 48 percent overall. R.J. Barrett scored 26 points and Brunson added 25 for the Knicks, who are still 10-5-1 ATS their past 15 home games and the Heat covered the spread for the second time in six tries at New York in Game 1. The Heat are 10-28-1 ATS their past 39 games following a win. Sunday's game went UNDER by a point and the Knicks now have stayed UNDER six games in a row while allowing only 96.5 points per game. The UNDER is 21-6 the past 27 meetings at New York and the Knicks especially will come out strong defensively from the start after losing Game 1. Take the Knicks as a Max Play, and bet the first-half and full-game totals UNDER.
