Heat win game 6 to take the series win 4-2
The Heat progress to the NBA Finals, somewhere they’ve not been since 2014.
In this game, it was much closer than the scoreline suggests, the heat held the lead for most of the game but Celtics were hot on their heels in the 2nd, 3rd and early 4th quarter.
This was yet another game decided on the free-throw line. The heat had 11 more chance than Celtics, and they converted 22 of the 26 attempts.
Excellent performances from Bam Adebayo, who led the game in both points and rebounds taking a double-double, Jimmy Butler and Tyler Herro who scored 19 points from off the bench.
Celtics needed a stronger performance from Jayson Tatum and Marcus Smart
