The Miami Warmth did their homework after Recreation 1 and adjusted. I do suppose Aaron Gordon can have just a few extra perimeter seems to be, in addition to backdoor cuts once more this sport. The Nuggets are 0-3 when Jokic scores 40 factors or extra. I anticipate extra from Aaron Gordon this sport, particularly within the paint. Additionally, Gordon hit over 12.5 factors 9 out of his 17 playoffs appearances. Usually I might say no to this prop contemplating Gordon’s inconsistency. Nevertheless, the Nuggets are an even bigger crew, and Aaron Gordon is averaging near 40 minutes a sport. He’ll completely be an x-factor for Recreation 3. I like Aaron Gordon OVER 12.5 Factors

 Jimmy Butler isn’t solely recognized for his scoring capacity within the playoffs, however he’s wonderful at making performs for his teammates and distributing the ball. I believe 6.5 assists is low, contemplating he had 9 in Recreation 2. Butler has been hampered with an ankle damage, and it’s unsure the extent of his damage.
