From the early going, literally all of the money is on the Celtics in the contest. 100% of the cash, 100% of the tickets, and 100% of the consensus forums all love Boston here against the Heat.

Miami is a +140 home dog while the Celtics are priced as a -150 road favorite.

Boston Celtics at Miami Heat Pick
We have to like Miami in this situation be that they are the better rested of the two teams and furthermore get this one at home. Furthermore, the public is more likely to get aboard Boston by virtue of a recency bias in both head-to-head and overall bodies of work. The Celtics also required additional time to dispatch their most recent opponent which sets them up here to be a fade target as well. Miami is completely off the radar be that they looked terrible in their most recent contest. Despite Boston’s dominance and Miami’s mediocrity, the market is reluctant to move with the heavy action on the Celtics. It would be bold to predict an outright upset even if the Money Line offers more value. However, Miami is an excellent choice to cover here. Look for Boston to get a scare, if nothing else.
