Recap: Celtics sneak away with a W vs. a frisky, grindy Heat squad

The Heat have been owned by the Celtics all season, but since the last time these squads met, Goran Dragic and the South Beach Mafia have gone on quite the tear. They’re still under .500 despite going 24-7 since their wretched 11-30 start, but Erik Spoelstra has undeniable made quality lemonade with his squad’s lemons. Boston underestimated them at first, but recovered from those mistakes in a wire-to-wire contest they were fortunate enough to win.

THE GAME FLOW

Yeah, so that thing I said about not underestimating the Heat: The Celtics began this game with carelessness and poor movement that suggested they were underestimating the Heat.
