The question of who the Boston Celtics will face in the first round of the 2024 NBA Playoffs has been settled after the Miami Heat defeated the Chicago Bulls in their second game of the league’s 2024 play-n tournament. And with that certainty, we can begin to analyze the matchup in earnest.
The Heat are not the team that sent the Celtics packing in the 2023 Eastern Conference Finals, playing worse and likely without star forward Jimmy Butler as he deals with an MCL injury. And while we can’t say for certain that Boston will make short work of Miami, they should if they come with the proper discipline and focus.
But one thing we do know for certain is when and where the games will be played, so let’s take a look at the Celtics’ first round playoffs schedule.
