#2 CELTICS at #1 HEAT | FULL GAME HIGHLIGHTS | May 17, 2022

That 39-14 3rd Quarter was fantastic. The Heat defense is smothering. Turning defense into easy offense.

Whoever is reading this, I wanted to say I hope you have a great day and that God loves you so much that he sent his son, Jesus, to die on a cross for your sins and he rose again from the dead three days later. God Bless! ✝️🙏🏼⛪️ And also, He doesn’t want you to go to Hell but he wants you to go to Heaven with him but you have to be Saved. How do I get Saved you might ask? Here are the steps below on how to get Saved! 1. Confess to Jesus that you are a sinner and ask forgiveness for your sins. 2. Believe that God sent His Son (Jesus) to die on a cross for your sins and that he rose again from the dead 3 days later. 3. Ask Jesus to come into your heart and your life and for him to be your Lord and Savior forever. 4. Build a Personal Relationship with Jesus and Live for Him Forever. I’m Praying for you and you are loved!

I am looking at the coaches Udoka and Spoestra. Their line-ups, rotations, substitutions, strategies and adjustments. Spoestra, at the half, made some attitude ADJUSTMENTS. That Miami Heat team played that 3rd quarter like their lives depended on it. One of the best 3rd quarters of playoff performances I have seen. Miami, without a TRUE superstar, played TEAM ball. Rebounds, defense, blocked shots, 50-50 balls, steals, free throw % and field goal %, off the charts. But, Boston was without Holford and Smart. Let us see what Miami can do with a healthy Celtic starting five and team.
