Miami vs Boston - Game 3

[Phil C]

It is a good game so far and at the end of the first quarter Boston leads 30-28. This is critical for both the Spurs and the Thunder because even though I think they are both better than Boston and Miami it is critical for Miami not to get a sweep and a big rest advantage. Winning it in is bad enough but a sweep would be a disaster.

[Phil C]

It is halftime and Boston is ahead 55 to 42 and almost a repeat of yesterday's game so far but the Heat are not playing bad like the Spurs but they aren't playing good either. The third quarter could be critical.

[Phil C]

Boston really rolling on this one even though Lebron has hit some threes. Boston leads at the end of the third quarter 85 to 63. It is going just about like last night's game.

[Phil C]

Unlike the Spurs Miami has really fought back and just trail by 11 with just over 5 minutes left. Boston went cold for a while and Miami went hot. Hopefully the Spurs are observing and learning.

[Phil C]

Miami has fought back and got close but Celtics lead by 10 with about a minute and half left and should hold on. We will see. Unlike the Spurs Miami fought back.

[Phil C]

Boston holds on to win 101 to 91. Miami still leads the series 2-1 but this win is good not only for Boston but for the Spurs and Thunder as well.
