Before Betting on Heat vs. Nuggets Game 2
The Miami Heat were stunned by the Nuggets’ diversified offense on Thursday night. Even though Jokic and Murray led the way, the role rival’s players were crucial for this loss. Also, Jimmy Butler’s mediocre performance is another reason for this defeat. Miami’s forward has scored only 13 points.
Bam Adebayo had a double-double with 26 points and 13 boards, while Gabe Vincent scored 19 points, five threes. Haywood Highsmith added 18 off the bench. Miami had a record-low two free throws in this event, the fewest of all in the NBA playoffs ever.
Jokic opened his NBA Finals quest with a triple-double with 27 points, 10 boards, and 14 assists. Jamal Murray had 26 points and 10 assists, while Michael Porter Jr. scored 14 buckets but had a team-high 13 rebounds. He also recorded two blocks.
The Nuggets were changing the rhythm on the offensive side throughout the contest, mixing the scorers, and that’s why they eventually had six guys with double-digits in the scoring column.
