NBA Finals Game 3- LA Lakers vs Miami

Tonight is game 3 of the NBA Finals between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Miami Heat. The Lakers have completely dominated the first two games behind the play of LeBron James and Anthony Davis and the Lakers now just sit 2 wins away from claiming the franchises 17 overall championships with 11 of those coming from Los Angeles after the move from Minneapolis. The Heat have a decimated playoff lineup with Goran Dragic presumably out for the series while Bam Adebayo seems as if his decision is going to be game to game. Even if they were playing the Lakers would and should be heavy favourites but those two key players for the Heat make this a much less competitive series mostly on the defensive end with James and Davis wreaking havoc on the Heat zone defence. The Lakers are favoured by  9.5 and I like them to win but I think Miami keeps it close and covers.

Record
Straight: 108-55
