The Miami Heat are in a must-win situation before Game 4 of the NBA Finals against the Denver Nuggets. 

Before Betting on Nuggets vs. Heat

Jokic and Murray accomplished something nobody has ever done before, becoming the first duo of players with triple-doubles that came along with 30+ points each. The Joker had 32 buckets, 21 boards, and 10 assists in Game 3, while Murray scored 34 points and had 10 boards and assists each. 

The Nuggets were much stronger than the rivals in Game 3, having 58 boards while allowing 33. Despite the fact that Denver scored just five threes, Mike Malone didn’t have too many troubles to win this one. 

Miami was competitive until the break. After the pause, they couldn’t follow Denver’s pace and intensity, so we saw them collapsing. Jimmy Butler had 28 points, but he wasn’t at his usual level, especially on the defensive side, contributing with only two boards. 

Bam Adebayo had impressive stats with 22 points and 17 rebounds, though he didn’t have such good shooting stats, making only seven of 21 shots from the field. The only left player with a double-digit number of points was Caleb Martin, who had 10 buckets.
