Miami Heat vs. Boston Celtics schedule: How to watch Eastern Conference finals series
By Wes Goldberg
For the third time in four seasons, the Miami Heat will face the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference finals. Last year, a Jimmy Butler 3-pointer nearly sent the Heat to the NBA Finals. Now the Heat get their chance for redemption.
It’s been a chaotic season for the Heat, who entered the playoffs as the No. 8 seed and beat the top-seeded Milwaukee Bucks in five games in the first round. They then dispatched the New York Knicks in six games in the second round.
The Celtics advance as the East’s No. 2 seed after winning series against the No. 7 seed Atlanta Hawks and No. 3 seed Philadelphia 76ers. Celtics star Jayson Tatum scored 51 points to lift his team over the Sixers in Game 7 on Sunday.
