NBA: The Celtics escaped a hit in the first quarter and left the Eastern Conference Finals alive • Taitum stood out with 30 points • At Miami, none of the top five players scored in double digits • On Thursday game number 5


The Boston Celtics defeated Miami 82: 102 tonight (Tuesday) in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals in the NBA League, equalizing the series to 2: 2.

While in the West Finals Golden State cruises to the Finals with no problems, in the East the story is completely different, and we get a close series, which threatens to reach a seventh and decisive game.

As with most games in the series so far, it was not a competitive game, and the Celtics ran away with a hit as early as the first quarter.

Miami scored just one shot out of its first 16 of the game, and already in the second quarter trailed by 27 points.

Without Tyler Hiro, who did not play due to injury, and with all of her top five players scoring 7-36 from the field together in the game (none in double digits), the only one to come into the game at the hit was Victor Oladipo who contributed 23 points, and in the final quarter one great Garbage Time coach Eric Spolstra let all of his top five players rest for the next game.

With Boston missing the season defender Marcus Smart who injured his ankle, star Jason Taitum came to work - and after being weak in the previous game, tonight he scored 31 points with 8 rebounds and five assists.

Peyton Pritchard who gives a successful playoff from the bench contributed 14 points tonight 3-6 off the arc, and Derrick White who took Smart's place in the starting lineup also put up a good game and scored 13 points, alongside 8 rebounds and six assists.
