Miami

The "Lightning" worked very hard on their game and deservedly deserve to compete for the gold rings of the NBA League, although they need to take one more step to get to the final.

Of course, for such a successful result and stable basketball, we need to thank head coach Eric Spoelstra, who could not build an efficient team since the departure of LeBron James and Dwayne Wade, but this season everything worked out.

As you can see, the team lacked a clearly distinguished leader and became Jimmy Butler, who also needed a club where he feels in his place and plays an important role. The star forward made a significant contribution to the team and it responded in kind.

As part of the playoffs, Miami easily dealt with Indiana, passed Milwaukee and got to Boston, where the real hack began. "Heats" already had the opportunity to end the series, but in the last meeting the opponent showed what real dedication is and won (108: 121), so the confrontation continues.

Boston

The Celts definitely hoped to take part in the playoffs, but they hardly thought they would go that far, although the squad was really good this season. The team put Philadelphia in their place in the first round quite easily, with the Sixers players not even putting up much resistance. In the next episode, "Boston" fought against "Toronto". The reigning champion kept the blow well, but in the key seventh meeting, the Canadians could not stand it (92:87).

Brad Stevens' wards showed real character, but there was no time to rejoice, as in the East final they were already waiting for Miami. The battle began with two defeats in a row, which could have been pushed aside for fatigue, but the club was able to turn on in time and won an important victory (117:106), but in the next confrontation it was not possible to level the score (109:112).

The Celtics had a choice to clench their teeth while beating the Heat and staying in the game, or to lose and end the season. Jason Tatum and company chose the first option, because in the last match they dealt with the “lights” (121:108).
