BBNBA: Heat drop Game 5 to Celtics with Tyler Herro sidelined

With Tyler Herro sidelined due to injury and Bam Adebayo having to take on the bulk of the responsibilities, the Miami Heat limped out of Game 5 with a critical loss.

Miami is now down 3-2 to the Boston Celtics in the 2022 Eastern Conference Finals following a decisive 93-80 Game 5 loss on Wednesday that saw the Heat struggle all evening long. Physical defense has been a staple of this series from the onset, but this was a matter of poor offense (on both ends, really). Miami shot all of 15.
