NBA Finals Betting Tips: Game 4
Denver Nuggets at Miami Heat
Kaseya Center, Saturday 10:30am AEST
After losing home court advantage in the series in Game 2, the Denver Nuggets quickly responded on the road in Game 3 to get back the ascendancy in the Finals.
Nikola Jokic put in another spectacular performance and created NBA Finals history by posting the first ever 30/20/10 triple-double.
Jamal Murray also showed up in a big way and finished with a rare triple-double himself, also posting 34 points in the process.
For the Miami Heat, Jimmy Butler finally had a big night scoring the ball when finished with 28 points, although it still took him 24 shots and that sort of inefficiency simply isn’t good enough.
Bam Adebayo played another great game on the offensive end to finish with 22 points and 17 rebounds. The big man has now had three-straight games of 20+ points and has clearly been his team’s best player in the Finals to date.
Looking ahead to Game 4 in Miami and what a crucial game it is. A win for the Nuggets would see them go ahead 3-1 and put one hand on the Larry O’Brien, whereas a win for the Heat would tie us up at 2-2 before the series heads back to Denver for Game 5.
With this game clearly being the most important yet, you can expect both teams to play with desperation from the outset.
I’m struggling to find any value in the head-to-head market and believe the bookies have the odds absolutely spot on.
Instead, I love the value of taking ‘Any Other Result’ in the ‘Wire-to-Wire’ market, as this should be a tight and tough tussle with plenty of lead changes throughout.

Nikola Jokic 30+ Points – Just scoring with ease against this Heat defence. Averaging over 33 points per game in the Finals and should get to 30 again here.
Jimmy Butler 25+ Points – Finally was able to find his shot in Game 3 where he had 28 points. Expect him to have another big night in an important game.
Bam Adebayo 18+ Points – Has been the Heat’s best and most consistent player in the Finals. 20+ points in all three games and there’s no reason why he can’t get to that mark again on Saturday.
