The match was quiet tense for the fans of both parties but as a neutral fan, the game was nothing less than a roller-coaster ride. The first two quarters went in favour of the Celtics having being ahead 57-33 at the end of second quarter, the Heats left it late at the night and brought their form in the last quarter but the deficit inflicted by the Celtics in the first two quarters was also too much to comeback from and the Celtics won the game 102-82. Despite the brilliance of Victor Oladipo, who displayed a brilliant performance but ended on the losing side. The Heats players looked dejected at the end of the match as the defeat was too hard to swallow having had the best of their opposition in the last match.
