Facing a 2-0 deficit, the Heat rallied behind Jimmy Butler’s incredible performance for a crucial Game 3 victory over the Lakers in the NBA Finals.
Miami will look to tie the series in Game 4 tonight at 9:05 p.m. ET/6:05 p.m. PT on ABC, but do William Hill bettors think the Heat can win two in a row against the Lakers?
“Game 3 was a monster handle,” said Nick Bogdanovich, Director of Trading for William Hill US. “We actually won more on that game this past Sunday than any NFL game that day. It’s been really lopsided on the Lakers for the first three games. We’ll still need the Heat tonight, but the money is like a 3:1 ratio, and the previous games it was a lot higher.”
The Lakers are currently 8-point favorites (-335 moneyline) at William Hill for this showdown after opening at -7.5. Meanwhile, the Heat are +275 to win Game 4 outright and the total resides at 219.
