Heat overthrow Celtics, break in Eastern Conference final

The Heat leads 2-0 in the conference final against Boston.

-

It's starting to get very serious for the Heat.

Relying on its tough defense and the baskets of Goran Dragic (25 pts), Miami recovered from an 18-point deficit to finally win (106-101) at the expense of Boston and now lead 2-0 in their final of Eastern NBA playoffs conference, Thursday.

In a one-sided game in the first period, the Celtics quietly recited their basketball in the wake of Kemba Walker, author of 23 points (7 rebounds), to at one time lead 42-24 in the heart of the second quarter.

For those of you who are new to this ... just vibe to it.

Boston has almost no room for error

Returning from the locker room, the Heat showed the combative face we know him and rebelled like Bam Adebayo who scored 15 of his 21 points (10 rebounds) in the 3rd quarter won 37-17 .

A reversal of the situation from which Boston never recovered despite a return to three lengths in the last minute (104-101) after two baskets behind the arc of Jaylen Brown (21 pts).

Because the money-time was again that of Jimmy Butler, author of two of his four interceptions in this key moment which ended up discouraging the Celtics, never far from winning but still too fair.

Game 3, already crucial for Boston's chances, will take place on Saturday.
