After a first quarter where the two teams went blow for blow, Boston, under the impetus of Jayson Tatum (30 points), took advantage of a defensive relaxation from the Floridians at the end of the second quarter to take nine points ahead at rest (66-57). Back from the locker room, Miami got back on the field with a knife between their teeth to reverse the trend and lead 91-103 before the last twelve minutes thanks to a third quarter won 25-46. In front of his audience, Boston then began to come back but Jimmy Butler (35 points) repelled the attacks of the Celtics to allow the Heat to snatch the first set and regain the advantage of the field. The second round is scheduled for Saturday at 2:30 a.m. Belgian time, still in Boston. The winner of this series will advance to the NBA Finals where they will face the winner of the Western Conference Finals between Denver and the Los Angeles Lakers. The Nuggets currently lead 1-0 in the series. (Belga)
