Vegas still does not respect the Heat: line is Miami +9.5 in Game 3 (if follows that G4 will be about the same, barring any injuries from either side).
The Heat did win straight up as 14.5 dogs last game so Spo might just say Eff You Vegas again. LOL
So if you really believe G2 was not a fluke, just continue riding your Heat spread bet and you’ll get rich.
But no, Boston still has major control of this series despite the Game 2 shellacking. Winning 3 straight to finish this series and everyone forgets about that ugly Game 2 loss at home.
Conversely, if Miami wins three straight, game 1 is forgotten. From where I sit, Miami has home court advantage with the series tied at one and, while I believe Boston will likely win three straight, it's kinda ridiculous to say either team has "major control" of the series at this point. They don't. By definition, they don't.
If your really believe that, time to bet on the Heat for what you think is good/great value. If you really believe the Celtics, the number one team this season, will lose this series, then it should be an easy bet for you.
