Los Boston Celtics do not want anything or anyone to doubt their candidacy for everything in the NBA Playoffs. After giving up the court factor of the TD Garden, a track that alone already transmits fear to all its rivals, ‘the Proud Greens’ did not let ghosts from the past knock on the door. They went out to Miami and soon the beating (84-104) was a reality to return the advantage (2-1) next to the best team of the regular season. Knocking them down seems like too big a task for the Heat who have a plan… but the complicated thing is keeping it over time.
Tatum tries to protect a ball.
At Boston’s ‘Game 2’ They scored more than 20 triples. It is a formula for success in modern basketball. Three adds up to more than two. And with that volume and success, a rival has to take on a lot. It didn’t happen with the series arriving at the Kaseya Center and Miami bled from distance with a poor 9/28 from long range. Boston didn’t score much more – only 11 out of 37 – but the difference was evident from the first quarter.
In the first quarter they already led by nine points (12-21, 12′) and the second quarter opened the way for the Heat who found themselves lacking an offensive reference beyond Bam Adebayo (20+9). The Celtics reached 42 in one quarter and the difference grew to 24 (39-63, 24′). That’s where the Miami dream ended, without inspiration.
Brown throws a jump shot.
Although the final result did not show much difference, Yes, the Celtics accelerated to one game played on the bases of the entire season. Very serious defense and a multi-headed attack. Up to four surrendered out of 10 against Miami: Tatumwith 22 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists. Brownup to 22 points, 8 rebounds and two steals. Kristaps Porzingis, taking flight to reach 18 points, 5 rebounds and two blocks. EITHER Derrick White, signing 16+5+3. Those are the Celtics.
We still have one more gear to put in
Jaylen Brown
They go 2-1 and promise more. “We still have one more gear to go,” Jaylen Brown explained. They believe in the green locker room that perhaps penalizes the break between the end of the course and the start of the post-season. Boston, little by little, has landed in the Playoffs. They’re in charge, be careful with them.
