Early in the morning of May 2, in the NBA playoffs G5, the Heat played away against the Celtics. In the previous 4 games, the Green Army achieved a 3-1 lead, which is the leader of the East, and it is not difficult to advance overall. The Heat are the No. 8 seed in the East and advance to the main draw as a play-in tournament. Butler's absence from the game has greatly diminished the team's overall impact.
In the first quarter of the game, the Green Army was in good shape, scoring 41 points in a single quarter, directly laying a 17-point advantage! In the second quarter, the double Tanhua and White continued to play efficiently, and the Heat was really difficult to fight, and the game was a bit one-sided! The Heat trailed by as many as 22 points at halftime with a score of 46-68. The three main forces of the Green Army combined for 49 points.
In the third quarter, the Green Army played an 8-0 start, and the advantage of 30 points was strongly improved. After that, the Green Army held high and didn't give the Heat a chance. After three quarters, the advantage came to 32 points.
The last quarter becomes the training time. Congratulations to the Green Army, the Heat are out of the game. On the whole, this game is not very exciting, the Heat's offensive efficiency is too poor, and they frequently hit iron. The Green Army was very efficient, and in the playoffs, the team played an unprecedented dominance, inside and outside, and White scored 25 points on 5-of-10 three-pointers, tied for the highest on the team. Brown had 25 points and Tatum had 16 points and 12 rebounds.
With the end of the Celtics' home game against the Heat, then the top 4 in the East will decide one spot! There is no suspense, the Heat is not capable of playing the Black Eight, and there is no suspense about the Green Army advancing. The next thing to do is wait for the winner of the Cavaliers vs Magic, and with a 3-2 score in this series, the Cavaliers need to take advantage of their opportunities to avoid long nights.
