Without a victory in Game 4 of the Finals, the Miami Heat‘s chances of winning a championship will greatly diminish.
After their Game 3 loss, fans are treating Friday night’s game as the most consequential of the series.
Loyal Heat followers think they will pull off a win but Shannon Sharpe doesn’t believe so.
He is predicting that the Denver Nuggets will be victorious in Game 4.
“The Nuggets are the better team and eventually the better team in a series will win,” Sharpe said on Friday’s Undisputed.

Sharpe pointed to the incredible output of both Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic as the biggest reason why the Nuggets will walk away with the big win.
He said that the Heat don’t have answers for both of those players.
He also said that if both Murray and Jokic do what they’ve been doing, the Nuggets only need about 30 points from a few other players to cruise to a win.
Sharpe noted that Bam Adebayo of the Heat is doing all he can to slow or stop Jokic but he needs help with that task.
That stretches the Heat thin.
That, compared with some of the troubles that Jimmy Butler has been having, is making life very hard for Miami.
The Heat are looking to score a very important home victory with Friday’s game.
If they are able to do that, they will even the series before it heads back to Denver.
If they lose, many people will predict that the Finals are pretty much over.
Murray and Jokic will try to make some noise in Game 4 – and the Heat will try to silence them.
