Two Team Parlay for Today - Thursday 9/17/20

A combination of sports always makes a Two-Team Parlay more exciting and that's the case today. On Thursday, the Miami Heat will play the Boston Celtics in Game 2 of their NBA Eastern Conference Finals best of seven series, while Tampa Bay Lightning will play the New York Islanders in Game 6 of their NHL Eastern Conference Finals with a chance to eliminate the Islanders with a victory.

Miami Heat vs Boston Celtics: BOS -2; Total 208.5

The Miami Heat defeated the Boston Celtics in overtime 117-114 on Tuesday in Game 1 of their NBA Eastern Conference Finals best-of-seven series to take a 1-0 lead. Defense has played a prominent role in the postseason as it does each year and Tuesday’s overtime victory by Miami was no exception. The biggest defensive play of all was Bam Adebayo’s blocked shot in the final seconds to preserve Miami's win. The total has cashed UNDER in three of Miami's last five and in eight of the Celtics last 10. Boston had a stretch of seven consecutive postseason games cash UNDER. Expect more of the same on Thursday;  suffocating defense; low-scoring; and a close game. Take the UNDER.

Tampa Bay Lightning vs New York Islanders: TB -135; O/U 5.5

The Tampa Bay Lightning lead their NHL Eastern Conference Finals best-of-seven series 3-2 over the New York Islanders. The Lightning lost an opportunity to eliminate the Islanders on Tuesday after falling 2-1 in double overtime. Each of the last two games of the series have finished UNDER and the expectation is high that Game 6 on Thursday will be another tough defensive battle with body checks along the boards, forechecking and superb play by each goaltender. The result of this will be another low-scoring UNDER.  Tampa Bay goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy has a goals-against average of just 1.88 through 18 playoff games, while Semyon Varlamov, the Islanders goaltender has a GAA of just 2.17 in 19 games. Take the UNDER to cash in this as well.
