Does Miami make the Dagger in the Series?
The series between the Philadelphia 76ers and Miami Heat has already entered its Game 6. The Sixers lost the last game in Florida by a very clear 35-point margin.
The home side is now counting on the home bonus, as the 76ers have won both of the previous home games against head coach Erik Spoelstra’s squad.
Philadelphia 76ers – statistics & current form
The troops of Head Coach Doc Rivers must improve considerably compared to the last game in order not to get kicked out of the NBA Playoffs 2022. For the first time, it wasn’t enough that Joel Embiid was on board.
After missing the opening two games, he returned in the third and since then Philadelphia had won every time. This time, however, the Cameroonian centre was also below his potential.
He may be a little frustrated at the moment because he was left empty-handed again when the MVP was decided a few days ago.
Miami Heat – Statistics & current form
Miami clearly prevailed recently as described and the high success has of course boosted Heat’s confidence once again. The success was mainly due to a united team performance.
In the end, no less than seven players from the franchise from the sunshine state had a double-digit scoring output.
Miami also looked more combative and very focused under the boards. In the end, the Sixers had ten fewer rebounds than their opponents.
Philadelphia 76ers – Miami Heat Tip
In the clash between the Philadelphia 76ers and Miami Heat in Game 6, the prediction includes more than 38.5 points, rebounds and assists by Jimmy Butler on the part of the visitors.
The team from Florida lives on its cohesion, but the small forward once again occupies a special position in Miami.
As a close game is to be expected, it is also clear that Butler, as an excellent two-way player, will be the lynchpin of the Heat’s game, especially in crunch time.
The 32-year-old also has the experience to handle games of this mentally challenging nature. With this in mind, Butler should lead the way for Miami, and his form in the series is right anyway.
He has exceeded the selected minimum number of points, boards and successful assists for his teammates in three of the past four match-ups with the Sixers.
