The NBA Finals are ready to continue. The Denver Nuggets will look to get a 3-1 series lead, while the Miami Heat will look to tie the series up 2-2.
Analysis:
The Denver Nuggets took back control of the Finals after a commanding win. Butler has been averaging 27.3 points in each playoff game, but hasn't been himself as of late. Butler will be able to put up 37+ points, and I think that will be enough to get them to a tied series. They will be hosting to the Denver Nuggets and Nikola Jokic. Jokic and Murray each had a triple-double in Game 3, with it being the 1st time in the NBA Playoffs that 2 guys on the same team had a triple-double. I expect neither for them not to both do it, but I think that at least one of them will of them will get a double-double. I'm expecting Miami's starters to generate 80+% of the points that they will end up scoring. If that doesn't happen, I don't expect them to score 100. And, if Miami doesn't, I heavily doubt they'll be able to win with under 100 total points.
Injuries:
Tyler Hero will again be out, as his status for Game 5 is unknown.
Score Prediction:
Nuggets 106 Heat 109
