After the first match where both the teams have looked evenly matched coming into Game-7, the fifth game seemed no different as the match ended in favour of the Celtics who made one hell of a performance to bring themselves back in the tie and register their name in the finals. 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 quarter went in favour of the Celtics whereas the next quarter went in favour of the Heats. The Celtics left it late at the night and brought their form in the third quarter to cut short the deficit and take a good lead in the third quarter which was just too for the Heats to comeback from and the Celtics won the game 96-100. Despite the brilliance of Bam Adebayo and Jimmy Butler, who displayed a brilliant performance but ended on the losing side. The Heats players looked dejected at the end of the match after their disqualification in the hands of their opposition.
The match was pretty much in for the Celtics right from the start of the match but the brilliance of Heats’ players made it hard for the Celtics to ensure their win. The Celtics managed their instincts well and ended the game by getting into the NBA finals where they will face the Golden State Warriors. The Celtics came back bravely after falling 2-1 behind after the third game and Jason Tatum and Co. will put everything into the final hurdle to have the silverware in tehri hands.
