Marquette In The NBA Eastern Conference Finals: Game 1 & 2 Recap

Let’s play a little bit of catch up as OUR GUYS~! Jimmy Butler and Jae Crowder have helped propel the Miami Heat to a 2-0 series lead in the Eastern Conference Finals against the Boston Celtics.

GAME 1

Miami Heat 117, Boston Celtics 114 (OT) — This is one of those “the Heat did enough to win the game” kind of games as opposed to a very strong performance from the Miami guys. Boston appeared to be ready to run away with this one, jumping out to a 12-3 lead in the first four minutes and eventually boosting that margin to as many as 13 when Marcus Smart canned a triple with 4:18 to go to make it 24-11.
