Before the series started, some fans believed it would be “easy” and some believed we would sweep the Miami Heat. Well, after Wednesday’s home loss, the team and fans know this Miami team won’t go down without a fight. After many years battling Miami, they have to be respected. In fact, they should have earned our respect.
Miami mentioned pregame that they wanted to shoot more threes, and they succeeded, hitting 53.5% (23/43) from deep. Boston didn’t adjust to Miami’s game plan and the Heat took advantage of finding the open shooter with the C’s being late on numerous closeouts.
