I absolutely love the way the Denver Nuggets play the game of basketball -- LOVE IT! Having said that, the Miami Heat have some dogs on their team and they will put up a fight in game 2. In fact, I won't be shocked to see them hold a lead in this game for long periods of time or even win it outright. They shot the ball as bad as they can shoot it in game 1 and I don't see that happening again tonight. Guys like Strus, Martin, and Robinson have to make their shots for the Heat to have a chance and I see them playing better tonight. On top of that, this is a huge bounce back game for the biggest dog in this series, Jimmy Butler. I look for him to play much better and have a big impact on this game.

I still believe Jokic gets his points, rebounds, and assists and plays well, but the Heat will also play well. And when both of these teams play well, this series is closer than many believe it to be after seeing game 1. Porter, Jr will shoot the ball better tonight and that will certainly help the score of this game be higher than it was in game 1. He has a chance to "make some money" in this series and I look for him to really perform. Murray has been excellent in this postseason and I don't see that changing tonight. He will get his buckets and continue to work off of Jokic. 

I look for much better shooting out of both teams tonight and that will carry this total Over. I look for the Heat to play with fire in their pants and I see them keeping this game close in a high scoring affair. I won't be shocked if they win outright but it's more likely that they will lose within the number.
