Total: 206.00 | -105.00 Under
Result: Loss
This Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals should be a feeling out process between two outstanding defenses.
The Celtics ranked No. 1 in defensive scoring, defensive field goal percentage and 3-point defense. The Bucks, the third-highest scoring team in the NBA at 115.5 points, could only average 88 points in their last two games against Boston.
Boston might encounter a rusty Miami team, too, since the Heat haven't played since last Thursday.
The Heat gave up the fourth-fewest points in the NBA while ranking No. 2 in defensive 3-point percentage and defensive rebounding. The Heat have surrendered fewer than 100 points in six of their last eight games. They held the 76ers to an average of 87.5 points in their last two games.
The Under has cashed in nine of Miami's last 11 games.
