Robert Williams III blocking Caleb Martin MIA vs BOS Dream11

MIA vs BOS Dream11: The NBA has been in full flow and we have seen intriguing battles throughout the Playoffs. The Western Conference didn’t see a Conference Finals sweep as the Dallas Mavericks were able to force a Game 5 at least after being down nil-three against the Golden State Warriors. Now let us turn to the East, where the Miami Heat and the Boston Celtics as the matters are tied and it has become a best-of-three scenario.

The Celtics completely shut down the Heat in Game 4, winning 102:82 as Jayson Tatum scooped up 31 points. The Celtics boosted up with the return of Robert Williams and despite missing their key guard Marcus Smart, they were able to fend off the Heat. Butler has come through in tough scenarios throughout the Playoffs but will he able to pull another magic off his scoring hat to get a lead?

NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Difficult series for both teams

The series has been physical right off the bat and forget what the scoring line has looked like, the series has been a heated one and there can be a game where we witness some ejections even, will this be one? Will the embers of the competitive spirit spark too far and cause more ruptures between the two squads that are not giving away anything and in all the four games, the winner has displayed dominant defense.

The problem with the Heat is that without Jimmy Butler going off for a big night, the team has been unable to get through. Kyle Lowry has been completely off his game whereas Bam Adebayo hasn’t been a big factor when Robert Williams starts the game. On the other hand, Victor Oladipo, who nailed 23 points in the last game and has been a huge defensive presence, can provide a huge promise to the team.

The Celtics weren’t particularly exceptional in their offensive execution and shot below 25% from the three-point line and that has been a recurring issue in the series. It will be interesting to see what version of the Celtics we will see in the most important phase of the series. Remember the Celtics made a comeback after being down two-three in the last series. Let us see if the Celtics can finish the business in two games against a vulnerable Heat.

Fantasy-related tips

Jimmy Butler has been a rather non-factor in the last two games after being the hottest fantasy option, but I believe he will bounce back here and it is difficult to overlook him while choosing fantasy lineups. Apart from him, the other options have been also inconsistent but Victor Oladipo has kept on raising his stocks. Adebayo hasn’t been a big scorer whereas Lowry has been a non-factor. Strus can be hit and miss but I believe he will be up for something great here.

Jayson Tatum usually hits the right notes while Al Horford’s all-around production also makes him a hot pick. Jaylen Brown is a high-yielding performer too whereas Robert Williams can’t be overlooked when he is playing. If Marcus Smart is here, then it is tough to overlook him as well. But yes, Tatum, Horford, and Williams can be among the must-have options here.
