The Heat did a fantastic job taking it to the Lakers in Game 3 and will need another huge effort on both ends of the floor to have a chance in Game 4. Miami is doing a good job without two of the team's best players, thanks to a deep bench. The Heat prefer to push the pace and expect the Lakers to do the same here. Los Angeles has been taking way too many threes in this series, but look for both teams to continue to shoot a ton from beyond the arc. This game will be hotly contested and expect plenty of free throws.

The Lakers let the Heat back in this series and Miami is coming into this game with a ton of confidence. Bam Adebayo is questionable while Goran Dragic is doubtful. We seen the depth of the Heat bench, and it’s going to take another huge effort to spring back-to-back wins over the Lakers. Los Angeles has not dropped consecutive games this postseason. Jimmy Butler had one of his best games ever and he will have to play with similar aggressiveness. The Lakers have been taking way too many three-pointers. The Heat have yet to really get going from beyond the arc and will have a big shooting night.

The balls were flying out of Dodger Stadium in Game 1 and we have a good chance of seeing similar results in Game 2. Warm temperatures and steady winds sure helped both teams. Sean Manaea has been prone to giving up the long balls this season and the Astros lineup is very dangerous this time of year. The Over was 6-4 in Framber Valdez’s starts this year and 6-5 in Manaea's. We have an Under umpire behind the plate and the numbers also suggest the Under here. Expect both teams to be very aggressive at the plate and on the bases.

The Rays were 8-2 vs. the Yankees during the regular season, but this is the postseason and New York is healthy, which is most important. This Yankees lineup is the best in baseball and set a Major League record with 31 runs scored with 11 HRs in their first three postseason games. Giancarlo Stanton has hit a HR in three straight games. DJ LeMahieu led the A.L. in hitting and is batting .478 during his current five-game hitting streak. Tyler Glasnow has fantastic stuff but is just 1-2 in five career starts vs. the Yankees. The Rays are just 3-10 in their last 13 Divisional Playoff games.

The Yankees have scored a Major League record 31 runs and hit 11 HRs in their last three postseason games. New York has the best lineup in baseball when completely healthy. Giancarlo Stanton has hit a home run in three straight games. Deivi Garcia will be the youngest starter to pitch in the postseason in Yankees history. We have seen the Over cash in four of his five starts. Tyler Glasnow is 1-2 in his career vs. the Yankees and we have seen the Over cash in eight of his 11 starts.
