‘Let’s make it a cage fight’: Miami Heat shock Boston Celtics to level first-round playoff series
CNN
The Miami Heat stunned the Boston Celtics 111-101 at TD Garden on Wednesday to level their first-round playoff series at 1-1.
The Miami Heat stunned the Boston Celtics 111-101 at TD Garden on Wednesday to level their first-round playoff series at 1-1. The Heat, playing without injured talisman Jimmy Butler, knocked down a franchise playoff record of 23 three-pointers to upset the Celtics, with Tyler Herro hitting six of them to lead the team in scoring with 24 points. Herro also recorded 14 assists, while teammate Bam Adebayo also notched a double-double with 21 points and 10 rebounds. The Heat also got a big night from Caleb Martin, who matched Adebayo’s 21 points, including making five of his six three-point attempts. After a beatdown by the Celtics in Game 1, few would have expected such a drastic turnaround in Game 2. However, this is the Heat, a team used to pulling off the improbable, and Miami fans will perhaps start to feel confident of emulating last season’s incredible playoff run, when the team reached the NBA Finals after entering via the play-in.
