Boston Celtics vs Miami Heat: Storylines

The Boston Celtics have been one of the strongest teams in the NBA for the past couple of years but they have yet to take a step forward in the playoffs. For some, this will be Brad Stevens’ last chance to prove that he’s capable of getting them over the hump and back to the NBA Finals.

Even though they just made the ultimate stage, the Miami Heat have yet to even clinch a playoff spot this season. Injuries, Covid-19, and a tough schedule has taken a toll on Erik Spoelstra’s ability to replicate last year’s success. Then again, they just need a good stretch to prove that they’re a top-tier squad out of the East.
