LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. – While Marcus Smart was screaming at his Boston Celtics teammates, and items in the locker room were apparently being thrown or slammed, Miami coach Erik Spoelstra was around the corner, saying “We are not going to sit up here and try to educate everybody on what winning basketball is.”
They had just given the Celtics a lesson. Spoelstra’s Miami Heat came back again to beat the Celtics again, this time in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Miami is two wins from the NBA Finals, and the more you watch this team, the less surprising it is.
