After an electrifying run of seven games, the Boston Celtics managed to beat the Miami Heat and secure the NBA Finals after 12 years
On the night of this Sunday, the 29th, the Boston Celtics visited the Miami Heat in a match valid for Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals. With the series tied at 3-3, the teams went into the final match looking for victory to advance in the competition. Even playing away from home, the Boston Celtics stood out and got the victory that put them in the grand final after 12 years.
The match started very well for the visitors, who managed to open a big advantage in the first period. With a very bad use in the shots, the Miami Heat was seeing their opponents open more and more the advantage on the scoreboard only in the first minutes of the match.
CHANNEL – ATHLETISTIC
With one of the best defensive sectors in the entire league, the Boston Celtics did not make life easier for the Florida franchise, which had to fight to stay in the game. The difference between the performances ended up being reflected in the scoreboard, where Miami ended the first quarter 15 points behind.
The visitors came to open 17 points ahead and seemed to have control of the match. However, the Miami Heat managed to recover and reduced the lead to six points at the end of the first half. Even coming close to the scoreboard, the hosts were unable to stay ahead on the scoreboard at any point in the game.
In the second half, the Celtics were managing the advantage, but even though they managed to breathe on the scoreboard, they already saw their opponents pull over again. The final stretch of the match was exciting to end the series with a golden key. Appearing well in the last period, Jayson Tatum took responsibility and guided Boston to victory.
On the other hand, the Heat were tough on the takedown. With 44 seconds left in the game, the team managed to reduce the lead to two points after a beautiful shot from three of Max Strus. Having the upset ball in your hands, Jimmy Butler, who was on the court for the entire 48 minutes of the game, took a risk in the last seconds but stopped at the rim.
