Two wins away from sliding into the NBA Finals, Miami Heat raced through victory in Game 1 against Boston Celtics, 106-101.
Just when Boston Celtics thought that they had it under control, Miami Heat stretched the lead all the way to 17 points in the second quarter which couldn’t be retained by them in the last two quarters. The switching and full-court pressure went against the Boston Celtics who looked like a different team in the final frame.
Goran Dragic’s versatile defensive moves, Duncan Robinson’s dunking shots and three pointers by big man Jimmy Butler came in at the right time for Miami Heat, giving them a needed win and two points lead, good addition to their kitty.
Just two more games in the East Conference before Miami Heat will enter the 2020 NBA Finals!
