“Boston Celtics keeps hope alive with second victory against Miami Heat in NBA playoff series”

The Boston Celtics achieved their second victory over the Miami Heat, 110-97, on Friday, to keep their hopes of reaching the NBA Finals in basketball, narrowing the difference to 2-3 in their series of matches in the Eastern District Final.

Four players contributed to Boston’s victory, namely Derrick White (24 points), while Marcus Smart added 23 points, and Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown each added 21 points.

Miami had advanced with three victories to none, but Boston responded by winning the last two matches, with the sixth match to be held in Miami, on Saturday, and the latter remains a candidate to reach the final and try to win its fourth title after the years 2006, 2012 and 2013. No team has ever overturned its 0-3 deficit in the Playoffs.

Thus, Boston is trying to achieve the achievement in order to obtain the honor of playing the final and the possibility of being alone with the record number of titles that it currently shares with the Los Angeles Lakers (17 each).
