The Colorado franchise has never won a title and now against the Heat it has all the consideration of the operators
A long week of rest and preparation, then Denver finally met his opponent for the ring: the Miami Heat. Erik Spoelstra’s team has lived so many lives in one series. It went on 3-0, got back to 3-3 and then went to break the Td Garden again to win game-7 and confirm the statistic that no one is eliminated after having accumulated such an important advantage. On the other hand, the Nuggets had already done their job by beating LeBron James’ Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference finals, after four even games that all ended in the same way. They will be the ones to contend for the NBA title: it begins at the Ball Arena in Denver, on the night between Thursday and Friday, at 2.30 am Italian time.
THE PREDICTION
—
Denver has a better roster, more rest days, and a regular-season record that legitimizes it as a favorite in the all-year series. Also considering the physical and mental energies dispersed by Miami in the seven-game duel with Boston and the previous seasons that saw the Nuggets win in both games but with a narrow margin, we can bet on the margin of success in terms of points. The most interesting solution is a win by Denver of at least 10 lengths over the opponents, which DaznBet, Netbet and Novibet offer at 2.01.
DENVER-MIAMI, THE QUOTAS
—
As previously underlined, according to the betting sites, it is coach Malone’s team that has the greatest consideration for game-1, also by virtue of the home factor. For this reason, a result in favor of the Nuggets is 1.30 with Goldbet and Better, while yet another feat from Miami even reaches 4.10 with Betfair. LeoVegas offers the best ratings in terms of total points scored: Over 218.5 is at 1.90, Over 219.5 is at 1.98, Over 220.5 is at 2.08.
As for individual performances, Sisal’s expectations are the same for Jokic and Butler: the chance that they score 30 or more points is 2.20. Betway gives the opportunity to guess the final result of the series: 4-1 for Denver at 3.00, 4-2 for Denver at 3.50, 4-3 for Denver at 5.00, 4-0 for Denver at 7.00. These instead are the favorable results for the Heat with the same bookmaker: 2-4 at 8.00, 3-4 at 10.00, 1-4 at 20.00, 0-4 at 35.00.
