The Celtics lose a nail biter to the Miami Heat 98-95 in a game that the Celtics led by as many as 14. We played this one without JB, Smart, Horford and Brogdon so were certainly behind the 8 ball to start but the Celtics really played well through most of this game. Derrick White was great in this one and so was Tatum in spurts. During our stretch of winning, everything was working for us. Defensively, we were solid and offensively, we were moving. White, Tatum and Pritchard did a great job of getting everyone involved but then the 4th quarter came.
Turnovers were an issue throughout this one but in the 4th quarter, we really shot ourselves in the foot. We ended the game giving up 17pts off 17 turnovers and also endured a 6 minute stretch of scoreless basketball. During that stretch we saw our 14pt lead turn to a deficit in the blink of an eye. You could tell this team was gassed being on the 2nd night of a back to back while missing 4 of our top 6 guys but there is no excuse to go 6 minutes of scoreless basketball. Despite losing the lead, we still had an opportunity to win it being down 2 with 20 seconds left and Tatum attempts a cross court pass to Grant that was easily picked off and the game was over. No timeout which I disagree with from Joe but he trusted his superstar to make the right play which is still what he would've drew up had he called a timeout and Tatum didn't deliver. It's just one loss in an 82 game season so it is nothing to get worked up about. The Celtics play again Thursday against the Knicks and will likely be playing with Horford, JB and Brogdon again so we will be close to fully healthy.
