The best sports betting websites have learned to not jump the gun when it comes to picking winners for the NBA Finals. The Miami Heat lost game one at home, but came back with a vengeance in game two and tied the series. The Miami Heat have shown that they can come back and compete with the San Antonio Spurs, but some fans and betting experts are starting to wonder if the Heat can actually beat the Spurs in a seven-game series.
The San Antonio Spurs showed the sportsbook agents just how focused they can be when the Spurs won game three by a nearly 40 point margin over a Miami team that is known for its scoring and defense. The Heat looked completely helpless against the Spurs in game three and that could have laid the foundation for the rest of the series. The Spurs looked very comfortable in its game three win and it also looked like San Antonio was dictating the pace of the game. The Spurs may have lost Tony Parker for game four, but that may not be enough to slow San Antonio down.
Why the Heat Will Win
The sports book experts know that the Miami Heat is able to learn from its mistakes and come out with a different approach in games following loses. After losing a close contest in game one, the Heat came back and put the Spurs down in game two. The Miami Heat knows exactly why it lost game three. It knows what players did not perform and it knows who has to step up big in game four to tie the series. As long as the Heat can identify the problems, there is a good chance that the problems can be fixed.
Why the Spurs Will Win
In order to set the proper sports betting lines for this game, the bookmakers have to decide if the Heat lost game three or if San Antonio won. The defense that San Antonio was playing rendered Lebron James almost helpless in game three. Even with Tony Parker possibly not playing in game four, the Spurs still know how to contain Miami. The Spurs had so many bench players step up in game three that it is almost conceivable that head coach Greg Popovich may let the bench play the majority of game four. That is how confident the San Antonio Spurs will be going into game four.
The Bottom Line
The Miami Heat knows what went wrong in game three, but the San Antonio Spurs may not let Miami correct the problems. San Antonio forced Miami to make a lot of mistakes in game three that the Spurs could easily replicate in game four. At this point, the NBA finals look like it is San Antonio’s to lose instead of Miami’s to win.
Pick: San Antonio Spurs
