The Boston Celtics were in a position to close out their Eastern Conference finals series against the Miami Heat at TD Garden on Friday night, but failed to seal the deal with the Heat surviving to force a Game 7 on their home court with a 111-103 win.
Boston simply did not have an answer for a relatively healthy looking Jimmy Butler, who scored a playoff high 47 points to steal a road win on Boston’s home court. The Celtics saw solid games from forward Jayson Tatum (30 points, 9 rebounds), wing Jaylen Brown (20 points, 6 boards, 5 assists), and reserve guard Derrick White (22 points, 5 assists), but couldn’t seal the deal in the end.
Let’s take a look at some of the best plays from Game 6 captured in images.
Both Williams and teammate Derrick White agree Boston can’t be looking past them to the finals if they want to win. https://t.co/TAglcVB1aR
