The finals of the Eastern Conference between the Boston Celtics and the Miami Heath were a grueling series that affected both sides. Each team has suffered multiple injuries in what was a physical battle in three games. Heat hold a slight 2-1 lead after taking game 3 in Boston to regain the home court advantage. The Celtics will try to come back and level things off on Monday night in Game 4 of TD Garden. Boston dominated the first half with 57-33, as his defense was crowded with Miami, supporting only 28.2 percent of the field.
Miami came out on red on Saturday, thanks to strong shooting and the dominant effort of Bam Adebayo, who was quiet in the first two races. He lost to Jimmy Butler throughout the second half due to a sore knee, but still found a way to hold on to the 109-103 victory. The Celtics reduced the gap to just one point at the end of the fourth, but could not take the lead in a match in which they abandoned wire for wire. Jaylan Brown led all scorers with 40 points. Meanwhile, Jason Tatum is fighting hard from the field, scoring just 10 points in 3 of 14 shots. The Celtics will bring back Robert Williams III from a sore knee, but Marcus Smart will sit with a sprained ankle. The heat will be without the Sixth Man of the Year Tyler Hero, who is out due to a groin injury. Here’s how to watch Game 4.
