1. Johnson & Johnson Sharp in Second Half
Despite the loss, both James Johnson and Tyler Johnson had strong performances against Boston.
J. Johnson showed his versatility early and often, as he aggressively attacked the basket and also led Miami with four 3-pointers on the evening. Of course, he competed hard on the defensive end as well and even guarded Isaiah Thomas a little bit down the stretch. In addition to his 22 points on 8-of-13 shooting, the 29-year-old also tallied six assists, three rebounds and two blocks.
