Celtics Tie Eastern Conference Finals with Dominant Game 4 Win
Five Takeaways from the Victory
1. Tatum Leads the Charge
Jayson Tatum bounced back in Game 4, dropping a game-high 31 points and leading the Celtics to a crucial win. His aggressive play and efficient shooting were key factors in Boston's victory.
2. Celtics Dominate Defense
The Celtics' defense was stifling in Game 4, holding the Heat to just 82 points. They forced turnovers, blocked shots, and limited Miami's top scorers, disrupting their offense and forcing them into difficult situations.
3. Series Tied at 2-2
With the 102-82 victory, the Celtics have tied the Eastern Conference Finals at 2-2. The series now shifts back to Miami for Game 5 on Wednesday night, where the Heat will look to regain home-court advantage.
4. Brown Provides Support
Jaylen Brown also played a vital role in the Celtics' win, contributing 17 points and 7 rebounds. His hustle and energy on both ends of the court were a boost for Boston, helping them maintain control of the game throughout.
5. Celtics Aim for Home-Court Advantage
With the series now tied, the Celtics will aim to secure home-court advantage in Game 5. A win in Miami would give Boston the upper hand heading into Games 6 and 7, which would be played at TD Garden.
