Final: BOS 84-103 MIA
Miami Heat is headed to the NBA FInals. Jimmy Butler and his team outclass the Celtics in the series-clincher. It won’t be a back-to-back finals for Boston.
A tough night for the Celtics. They struggled to make their shots. Especially, from the three point arc. Heat, on the other hand, exploited exactly that. Butler was the highest scorer today and will ideally win the Eastern Conference Finals MVP, but a massive shoutout to Caleb Martin. He’s been exceptional in shooting the ball through out the series.
It is Miami Heat vs Denver Nuggets in the NBA Finals. Jokic vs Butler. We will be back for the series which starts on Wednesday. Until then, see ya!

Jaylen Brown has scoed 13 points for the home side but Tatum with only seven has been a miss. The Heat stars have fared similar on the other team. While Butler has 11 points, Adebayo has just four.
