Celtics Dominate Heat, Tie Eastern Conference Finals
Celtics Level Series with 102-82 Victory
The Boston Celtics have tied the Eastern Conference finals after a dominating 102-82 victory over the Miami Heat in Game 4 Monday night at TD Garden.
Tatum Leads Celtics
Jayson Tatum bounced back in Game 4, dropping a game-high 31 points and leading the Celtics to victory. Tatum had struggled in the first three games of the series, but he was aggressive and efficient in Game 4, shooting 11-of-20 from the field.
Celtics' Defense Shines
The Celtics' defense was also a key factor in the victory. The Heat shot just 38.2% from the field, and the Celtics forced 15 turnovers. Jimmy Butler, who had been averaging 26.5 points per game in the series, was held to just 11 points on 4-of-16 shooting.
Conclusion
The Celtics now have the momentum in the series, and they will look to take the lead in Game 5 on Wednesday night in Miami. The Heat, on the other hand, will need to find a way to stop Tatum and the Celtics' defense if they want to stay alive in the series.
