Prediction

This feels like a turning point in this series.

Game 2 was an emphatic Knicks win after dropping Game 1 in the Garden and leveled the series back at a game a piece.

The Knicks have a chance to get back in the lead today, on the road, with their full lineup back and starting.

Julius Randle returned in Game 2 and was fantastic, with a near triple double and 25 points. Jalen Brunson was also fantastic, with 30 points to help lead the Knicks back to level pegging with the Heat.

Both of the Knicks stars will have to shine brightly once again today on the road to have a chance to take the lead in this hard fought series.

All eyes in Miami are on the news about Jimmy Butler and whether he will be able to play today on his sprained ankle he suffered in Game 1.

Jimmy Butler (ankle) listed questionable for Saturday.

There is no official news as of this writing at 11:00 AM EST on Butler’s status but the word from the Heat camp is the All Star is going to give it a go today.

Either way, I love the Knicks today.

Best Bet

The Knicks have been one of my favorite teams to bet on this season and in the playoffs so far. Giving them 4 points on the road feels like a gift that I will happily take.

Butler is probably going to play but will not be 100%. The Knicks have a healthy Brunson and Randle, and are getting major contributions from RJ Barrett and Josh Hart as well.

I love the Knicks to cover and possibly even win outright to take the lead in the series.

Player Prop of the Game

Julius Randle o3.5 Assists (-113) Bovada Sportsbook

I absolutely love this prop.

Randle has been fantastic facilitating all season and that will continue today as it did last game.

Randle had 8 assists in game 2 and has 4+ assists in 5 of his last 7 games versus the Heat.

I love the trend to continue and his facilitating role in this offense to stay the same. I also love the ladder as well.

He has 6+ assists in 2 straight games and 4 of his last 6 against the Heat.

Bonus: Randle 6+ assists (+360) BetOnline
