The Nuggets vs. Heat live stream finds Boston and Miami tied 1-1

And the Heat won the see-sawing game with a terrific trio of scorers. Gabe Vincent posted 23 points, while Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo each contributed 21. The points will have to come from across the squad again tonight, as Tyler Herro has been confirmed to be ruled out.
Across the court, the Nuggets' shooting failed to show up, thanks to Miami's swarming defense and the addition of Kevin Love — who shut down Aaron Gordon. All of Denver's little tweaks paid off, especially on stopping Nikola Jokic from being the playmaker and assist-compiler he's been during the playoffs.
The Heat will enter game 3 with its home town supporting them, and hoping their offense continues to stay alive. Game 1 saw too many missed open shots, a pattern that the Miami faithful will not want to see.
DraftKings is showing slightly wider odds, now with the Nuggets (-165) as the favorite and the Heat (+140) as the underdog. So, betting $165 on the winning Nuggets would earn you $100, and a $100 bet on the winning Heat would net you $140.

Can you watch Nuggets vs. Heat live streams in Australia?
Probably. Aussies can watch the 2023 Playoff live streams on Kayo Sports, a major destination for NBA action. ESPN Australia, if you get it, is another means, but it's unclear if either will host the Nuggets vs. Heat live stream.
Kayo offers a 14-day free trial for both its Basic and Premium plans, more than enough time to confirm they're actually showing the games. The Kayo One package costs $25 per month thereafter, and Kayo Basic is $30.
The $35 per month Premium Kayo plan gives you all the same things as the normal plan, but it offers three simultaneous streams. The Basic plan gives you two streams at the same time.
Not in Australia but usually a Kayo subscriber? You may need a little help from a service such as ExpressVPN.
