Boston - Miami: will the Celts manage to stay afloat?

At the moment Miami is leading in the series (3:1). During the playoffs the Oks lost only twice. The last time Boston made it to the NBA Finals was in 2010.

Boston

The Celts got off to a great start in the playoffs, as they first knocked out Philadelphia and then showed class in the series against Toronto. There was such an impression that Brad Stevens' wards simply cannot be stopped, but problems began in the East finals.

Boston met with Miami and immediately lost two matches in a row, which hit hard the players' self-esteem. The team did not expect the situation to change so dramatically, so in the third match the club gathered all its strength into a fist and issued a victory (117:106).

The Celtics were supposed to squeeze the opponents in the last confrontation, though they failed, because the Lights were stronger for the third time (109:112).

Miami

The "Heats" continue to bend their line and are very close to reaching the NBA final. The team began their history in the playoffs with a victory over Indiana and then drove Milwaukee into a dead end.

Erik Spoelstra's guys did not lower the bar in the third round, when they had to face Boston. The team dominated on the floor and after two matches was quietly leading, although after that the Celts still managed to open the Miami defense (106:117).

The joy of the Celtics did not last long, as the lights quickly rebuilt and again gave a fantastic fight. Respectively, they issued the next victory (112:109).
