It takes a lot of out of a team to come back down 3-0 in a series. All of those teams have lost in Game 7 by double digits (at least in the modern era).
It doesn't help that Boston's head coach just simply got outclassed by Spo. Last night's performance by the Heat was nothing special...but Spo got their minds right and simply didn't allow Boston to get any real momentum and the Heat played pretty conservatively with a "if we just don't **** this up, we'll win easily" mindset and they did. Miami didn't fall in love with the 3 and chased daggers...when Boston had that 8-0 run when they were down 16 and started to gain momentum...some simple mid-range, inefficient two point shots that were wide open stopped the run by Boston and any momentum. Little things like that kept the game out of reach for Boston.
For Boston...they got to get rid of the guy they have at HC. Just not the guy for this level of basketball, and it seems they have to invest an insane amount of money for Jaylen Brown to run it back or to reconfigure around Jayson Tatum. Not a good finish for the Celtics who might be on the downswing of a run.
