Miami Heat One Game From Making Another Appearance In NBA Finals

The Miami Heat are now just one victory from making yet another trip to the NBA Finals.

The Heat are on the verge of becoming the second No. 8 seed to making it to the championship round after defeating the Boston Celtics 128-102 Sunday in Game 3. They led 3-0 in the best-of-7 series.

“We’ll decompress tomorrow,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said, “but we’ll really get our minds right to finish this thing off.”

Gabe Vincent led the Heat with a career-high 29 points and Duncan Robinson added 22.

“I just didn’t have them ready to play,” Boston coach Joe Mazzulla said. “Whatever it was, whether it was the starting lineup or an adjustment, I have to get them in a better place, ready to play. That’s on me.”

Game 4 is Tuesday in Miami.
