NBA: Playoffs-Miami Heat at Boston Celtics
In game three the Celtics lost a tough one at home falling 109-103 against the Heat. Jaylen Brown had 40 points in a losing effort in game three, while Jayson Tatum was held to only 10 points.
After losing game three, game four was a game the Celtics desperately needed to win at home. Game four was a different story for Boston beating the Heat 102-82. The Celtics came out hot in this game getting out to an early 29-11 lead at the end of the first quarter.
Jayson Tatum had a bounce back game scoring 31 points, grabbing 8 rebounds, and 5 assists leading the way for Boston. After missing game three Celtics center Robert Williams came back for game four where he scored 12 points and grabbed 9 rebounds in 19 minutes played, while Derrick White who didn’t score in game three had a line of 13 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists in game four bouncing back nicely.
It was a team effort for Boston in game four, as they will look to carry it over to game five in Miami. This series has been as advertised, and I can’t wait to see how it unfolds.
