who would believe?
The Boston Celtics recorded a second consecutive victory in the Eastern Semifinals series this morning (Thursday), this time 80:93 over Miami in Florida and went up to a particularly critical 2: 3 in the semifinals series.
The Celtics, who in the middle of the current season, were not considered one of the favorites to win the title at all, will be able to close an interest on the night between Friday and Saturday ahead of their first appearance in the NBA Finals since the 2010 season.
As with the rest of the games in the series, this time too the Florida fans did not anticipate a particularly close game.
Although in the first half, the two defenses spoke and Miami went down to the break with a 37:42 advantage, but in the third quarter Jaylen Brown and Jason Taitum, shifted gears and led to 16:32 and from there the heat could not come back.
The Boston bench in the sky,
In the last quarter, the hit that again failed to hit from the field, when they finished the match with 30 of 94 from the field and only with 7 of 45 off the arc, while Jimmy Butler, who 'stank the parquet' in the previous game with only 6 points, finishes this time only With 13 points.
The hit bench is hard to digest,
Jaylen Brown led Boston with 25 points as Jason Taitum scratched the triple-double, scoring a stat line of 22 points, 10 rebounds and 9 assists and on the way became the second youngest player in history to reach 1,500 playoff points after Kobe Bryant .
Al Horford added 16 points and Derrick White added another 14 points of his own.
At the host, Bam Advio finished with a double-double of 18 points and 10 rebounds.
