After struggling in the first two games of the series, Trey Young was once again there in money time for the Hawks, who came back to life in the series after a comeback from a 16-point deficit during the second half.
PJ Tucker led a 0:21 run that gave the hit the same advantage, except that in a plus-point situation in favor of Miami, second-game hero Jimmy Butler missed a shot to two and the ball fell into Young's hands, with coach Nate McMillan not even considering taking a timeout.
The star "entered the woods" as he passed Tucker on the way and fired an archery shot over Butler, who dived in and stopped the clock at 4.4 seconds.
Butler failed to score a three in the last attempt and Atlanta celebrated.
This time he was the tragic hero.

Beyond the result, Miami should also be concerned that Kyle Laurie abandoned the game in the third quarter due to injury, and the team will hope that the leading center will not join the list of stars who have been sidelined in the current playoffs.
Young finished with 24 points and eight assists for the winner, Bogdan Bogdanovich was as efficient as usual off the bench, with 18, eight rebounds and six assists, and Diandra Hunter scored 17. In the hit ranks Tyler Hiro balled with 24 and 7 rebounds, Butler and Max Strauss scored 20 points each. one.

No Chris Middleton?
There's Grayson Allen.
The infamous player due to his unsportsmanlike ways Haifa for the absence of the injured star, and with five threes out of seven attempts contributed 22 points that placed him as the champion's outstanding scorer, on the way to regaining the home advantage and rising to 1: 2 in the series.
The playoffs are back for the first time in five years, but the Bulls provided a fall display precisely after surprising the Bucks away, and will have to equalize in the next game to return to Milwaukee with a realistic chance of qualifying for the regional semifinals.
Yannis Antocompo scored just two points after the first quarter, but was not really needed more than that, as the 16 that came before helped the visitors open a high double-digit gap.
The Greek finished with 18, seven rebounds and nine assists while Bobby Fortis recorded 18 of his own alongside 16 rebounds.
Nikola Wojciech led the Chicago scoring with 19, Zac Lavin added 15 and Damar Druzen only 11.
