Looks like the season might not be over after all.

Cs need to get used to the physicality and no calls in the playoffs.

The playoffs is just different.

Heat giving the Cs a hard time only helps the Cs in the long run.

Only other team that might give the Cs trouble is NY.

But Mitchell Robinson is injured.

Looking like another Philly vs. Boston matchup.

Seriously though, great response to that game 2 dud. Now let's see them keep this up and carry this over to the next game and beyond.

I can't believe they dropped a game to these bums.

Joe also did a good job not panicking after that Game 2 loss.

Stuck with what worked the whole season.

Tatum played 4 more minutes than the next closest Celtic, weird to see a gap like that in a playoff game.

Crush them on Monday.

A nice stat was us shooting below %30 from downtown (11/37) and still dominating the game

I love it when we play defense like that. I'll give Joe the VC just for that.

Good catch.

Cs didn't do too well last season if they shot below 30% from 3 in a game.

Great defensive effort, good win.

I voted DWhite & only DWhite. There was a stretch in the second quarter where Heat kept getting good looks on offense, and we were starting to look out of sorts, Heat began to cut into our lead and Joe didn't call a timeout. DWhite hit clutch shots and scored like ten points while coming up with some big plays on defense and even on the boards. Without that stretch from DWhite I feel like we were at serious risk of losing our 20 point lead.

Jrue didn't score tonight (3 points) but wasn't nearly as bad as given credit for. Had five assists in the 1st half, gave a good effort on D. Finished a team best +23.

Herro & JJ posted 7 turnovers to 7 assists, shot 10-29 from the field. Realistically, that is where we won the game.

Tatum was solid but looked out of sorts, hopefully its not a permanent thing.

It’s why I was encouraged by tonight, Celtics played through insane physicality, and just ended up overwhelming Miami with their size.

Jayson still needs to be way better. This everyone eats offense is not going to work in later rounds

Return to Boston Celtics
