Betting tips for Eastern Conference finals - Heat-Celtics Game 6

All odds are provided by Caesars Sportsbook.

If it ain't broke: While the Heat have been outplayed for the majority of this series, Bam Adebayo has found success. In the first halves of Game 3 and Game 5, Adebayo made 13-of-20 shots while the rest of his teammates combined to shoot 39.2% from the field. Miami should rely heavily on Adebayo early and often in this must-win Game 6.

Finding creation: Derrick White has averaged 5.5 assists and 11.5 potential assists over the past two games. His assist prop for Game 6 is at 3.5, so there is value to consider if he continues his pace as a distributor. Adebayo has averaged eight potential assists over the past two games for Miami and his assist prop sits at 2.5.

While I respect their championship pedigree and culture, their injury luck is too much to look past against this particular Celtics team. I think Miami can keep it close for the first quarter or two, as they did at
