Heat vs. Celtics odds, spread and total
Game 7 under trend hits at incredible rate
As the pace slows and teams run out of adjustments by the end of the series, defenses tend to take over and bettors continue to rake in cash over a long period of time.
Dating back to 2003, Game 7 unders are 41-24 and are 22-14 since 2013. Since 2018, this number sits at 10-5, not including the neutral floor bubble games during the 2020 postseason.
This is being factored into the betting market more and more as the total opened at 207.5 briefly before getting bet down to the current number of 203.5. However, these games continue to go under the total as the pressure mounts and the shots continue to go awry.
If you don't have an opinion on who will advance, sit back, relax and watch the under cash.
