Can the Boston Celtics’ Game 4 win over the Miami Heat give the Celtics something to build on in the series?

Anything that improves on the first three games of the series — all losses for Boston — is a plus.

Can the Boston Celtics’ Game 4 win over the Miami Heat in the 2023 Eastern Conference finals give the Celtics something to build on in the series? The importance of key players performing at their best during the playoffs is literally the difference between one team advancing and the other going home, so anything that improves on the first three games of the series — all losses for Boston — is a plus.

And that is the tack taken by “Old Man and the 3” podcast host and former NBAer JJ Redick on a recent episode of his show. Redick explains that while Jayson Tatum had a great night, contributions from Al Horford, Marcus Smart, Derrick White, and Grant Williams were crucial to the win and forward momentum.

To hear Redick’s point of view on Boston’s potential to steal more wins in the series vs. the Heat, take a look at the clip embedded above.
