Two teams that hold a nice history together over the past decade or so will meet again on Wednesday night when the red-hot Boston Celtics travel to South Beach to face off with the Miami Heat.

It's still pretty early in the season but it seems like both of these teams are going to be a huge nightmare for the rest of the Eastern Conference, so we can definitely expect this game to go down to the wire.

Miami Heat vs Boston Celtics: Storylines

The Miami Heat beat the odds and made it to last year's NBA Finals. This year, however, they got off to a slow start, mainly because of Jimmy Butler's ankle injury. Now that he's back at full strength, Erik Spoelstra's deep team is ready to make another run and prove that their success wasn't a fluke.

The Boston Celtics have knocked on the door of the Eastern Conference Finals for years now but have yet to take a step forward. This season, Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum look like one of the best duos in the league already, and the addition of Tristan Thompson has given them some much-needed size.
