A miraculous tap from Derrick White at … two tenths from the buzzer can make Boston history. The Celtics are, in fact, on their way to a unique comeback against Miami.
Led 3-0 in this Eastern Conference final by the Heat, Boston tied at 3-3 thanks to its 104-103 success in Act VI in Florida. Never before in the NBA has a team won a series after being down 3-0. This scenario has happened… 150 times already.
Despite 13 points scored by Jimmy Butler in the last four minutes of the game, the Heat failed on the wire when he thought his time had come. Beaten by Clint Capela’s Atlanta in the playins, Miami can become the second team in history ranked No. 8 seed to play in a playoff final. But after Derrick White’s last basket, the prospect for Miami to challenge Denver for the supreme title becomes very tenuous.
