Before Betting on Celtics vs. Heat Game 6
Boston was excellent at the TD Garden, having four players with 20 or more points. They imposed the tempo early on, outscoring the Heat 35-20 in the first quarter. We’ve seen Mazzulla’s crew dropping 16 threes and overall having 50+% FG.
Derrick White was 6-for-8 from deep, ending the contest with 24 buckets. Marcus Smart had one point fewer and four threes, while the leading duo of the Cs, Tatum-Brown combined for 42 points, 21 each. Tatum collected eight boards and 11 assists, while Brown again presented top-class defense.
On the other side, the Heat looked lost and disorganized. They couldn’t get things going because Jimmy Butler couldn’t attack the rim often. Gabe Vincent was out, which was a major blow for Erik Spoelstra as his rotation got thinner here.
Butler ended the game with 14 points, while Duncan Robinson scored 18 with nine assists. Bam Adebayo scored 16 and had eight boards, yet he lost six possessions, Caleb Martin added 14 points, and Haywood Highsmith scored one more.
