Recap: Celtics travel to Miami to suffer humiliating beatdown; should consider picking up some antibiotics

IN A NUTSHELL
I’ve written enough about my distaste for the Miami Heat and will not rehash that here. Even if the return of Dion Waiters, a player whose completely unearned swagger and self-deception drives me into fits of apoplexy, really makes me want to, I won’t repeat myself about that. I promise. More importantly: The Boston Celtics had a winning streak on the line, and the Heat, for all their injury upheaval and hard-to-watch (but crudely effective) brand of basketball were the sort of team that could end it.

Which is exactly what they did. In fairly grotesque and embarrassing fashion, at that.
