set the tone from the start set the tone from the start "Set the tone from the start"- @celtics Led by and , the Boston Celtics will look to punch their first ticket to the NBA Finals since Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, and Ray Allen led the team in 2010. Considering that this franchise has 17 NBA Championships on their resume, they aren't used to being out of contention for that long. This series has been one of the most important thus far. The Celtics were just a part of a seven-game series with the defending champion Milwaukee Bucks. The Boston Celtics will look to execute and find a way to escape Miami with an NBA Finals ticket. The key to victory for Boston is to contain the Heat's 3-point shooting. They saw in Game 6 that Jimmy Butler can score 47 points and they can still keep the game close. Boston should prioritize closing out on the shooters and securing rebounds to avoid any second-chance opportunities.

Miami Heat Preview

Jimmy understood the assignment. Jimmy understood the assignment. "Jimmy understood the assignment"- @MiamiHEAT willed the Miami Heat to a Game 6 win with his 47 points. Tonight, the Heat are going to need similar production and role players to step up. , , and are going to need to knock down open shots. Boston will not allow Jimmy Butler to single-handily beat them again. The one thing that is very concerning about the Heat is that they could have emptied their tanks in the last game, leaving the Celtics with an opportunity to thrive. The biggest news regarding this game will be the availability of Sixth Man of the Year, . Herro has missed three consecutive games with a groin injury and the Heat's offense has surely missed his ability to create his own shots. The key to victory for Miami is to give Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown trouble as they try to score. In Game 6, Tatum and Brown combined for only seven shot attempts in the second half. That trend surely won't continue in a game of this magnitude.

Player Prop Prediction Jaylen Brown over 33 5 Points Rebounds and Assists -110 & Boston Celtics 1H -1 -115

Game 7 means that the starters for both teams are going to play very heavy minutes. Jaylen Brown is in a great position to be very productive and efficient throughout tonight's game. We're also going with the Celtics to come out motivated and lead by two or more points at the break. Let's go Celtics! Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
