Celtics vs. Heat series predictions: Breaking down the Eastern Conference finals

The Boston Celtics are four wins away from their first NBA Finals appearance since 2010, but they’ll have to get through the No. 1 seed Miami Heat in the 2022 Eastern Conference finals.

Grant Williams emerged as the hero of Boston’s Game 7 win over the defending champion Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday. The Heat have been resting since Thursday when they closed out the Philadelphia 76ers in six games. The Heat posted the best record in the East in the regular season and finished two games ahead of the No. 2 Celtics in the standings. Boston won the regular-season series 2-1; both victories over Miami were blowouts.

How will the Celtics-Heat series play out? Here are our predictions for seven series prop bets ahead of Game 1 on Tuesday.
