Miami Heat: Boston Has Good A Chance To Get It Done, But Can They?
The Celtics will need to defend him differently than any other player they have faced so far. Another issue for the Celtics is the shooting of Jayson Tatum.
Although he made the adjustment of finding his teammates, he shot an inefficient 3/17 from the field in Game 1. It seems that when Tatum goes cold, Jaylen Brown gets hot and vice versa.
That was the trend in the Miami Heat series. If that continues, the Celtics might have a hard time winning the series.
The Celtics will need Tatum to be more of a scorer going forward and they cannot expect to win without contributions from both of their stars. At this point, the NBA Finals series could go either way.
Right now, the slight edge should belong to the Golden State Warriors based on their championship experience. However, the young Celtics team is playing well as a team right now.

So, yes, Boston has a very good chance to become the third consecutive champion the Miami Heat have lost to.
