Result:
WIN

Boston did what it had to do in Game 3 and came out and defended well in the first quarter, holding the Heat to 22 points and eventually winning the game to pull within one game in the series, down 2-1. Now the Celtics have to focus on the same thing as they try to even the series, and they'll need to hold Miami to a poor shooting percentage again after the Heat shot only 39-percent overall and 27-percent from 3-point distance on Saturday. Boston allows opponents an average of 51.7 points in the first half this season and the Celtics are 12-4 UNDER their last 16 games and 9-3 UNDER when playing with at least three days of rest. Boston will have plenty of energy to come out strong defensively in the early going, and I'm taking the first half to stay UNDER the total.
