Miami Heat Players Need to Pull Themselves Together
The Miami Heat went 3-0 in the first three games of the Eastern Conference Finals. Unfortunately for them, the Boston Celtics won the following three games. In the previous game, Boston won by just one point, thanks to Derrick White’s buzzer-beater.
The loss in the final moment of Game 6 certainly left a bad effect on Miami. The worst thing is that in Game 7, they’re going to have an even tougher job as the series is moving to TD Garden. Still, the Heat did beat the Celtics in the first two games played in Boston. Can they do it once again?
Boston Celtics Doing Great Defensively
The main reason why the Boston Celtics won the last three games is that they improved their defensive game. In the last game, they conceded just 103 points, while in the two games before, they allowed under 100 each time.
The Celtics played great as a collective, with Jayson Tatum being their standout player. The 25-year-old forward recorded a double-double in each of his last five games. In Game 6, he scored 31 points, as well as recorded 12 rebounds and five assists.
Miami Heat vs Boston Celtics Game 7 Prediction
The Boston Celtics have the momentum after winning the last three games. We think it’s very likely they’re going to win again. This time, it’s possible they’re going to win by a much higher margin than in the last three games.
