Boston Celtics vs. Golden State Warriors NBA Finals Game 3 Prediction

The first two games of this series were highly entertaining and resulted in a split. The Celtics went into a tough environment and took one game. They did their job in the Bay Area, and now they know if they hold serve and win on their home court, they will be NBA champions. They also know how difficult this task will be.

The Golden State Warriors have been the gold standard of the NBA for the better part of the last ten years. Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green have been a part of many great teams and champions, and they have a chance to claim yet another. The Boston Celtics, on the other side of things, have been close the last few years, but they want to taste what it is like to win a championship.

The stage is set for Game 3, and we should get a hell of a game tonight. This series has basically been won by one quarter a game. The Celtics had a massive fourth quarter to erase a double-digit lead and ended up winning the game by double digits. In-game two, it was a tight game at the half then the Warriors exploded in the third quarter to make it a lob-sided game. So what team can go on more runs tonight and get more stops? 

I am backing the Boston Celtics on the money line here at home. I love this spot for them in Game 3 after getting blown out in Game 2. We have seen how this team answers to losing games, and I think we will see that again tonight. They should shoot the ball much better than in Game 2, which should result in more energy on the defensive end.

The crowd will play a factor in this game tonight, as this should give the Celtics an extra jolt of energy to play in front of these Boston fans. I expect a big game from Jayson Tatum as we are waiting for that breakout game in these finals from him. Lastly, they will adjust to how they defended Steph Curry in Game 2. They will not be dropping on those screens and forcing other guys to beat them tonight. Let’s stay hot on the hardwood!
