In a first-round repeat of the Eastern Conference Finals from the previous season, the Boston Celtics stormed off to a 1-0 series lead on Sunday afternoon at TD Garden.
For thirty-six minutes, the hosts played a terrific two-way game. They led 91-59 going into the fourth quarter and then started to let up. The visitors never got inside single digits, despite Boston making six mistakes in the fourth quarter that the Miami Heat converted into 13 points and missing numerous shots at the hoop.
Charania added, “He is not going to be back in this series; this is a rehab that’s gonna go at least one month; it could be two months of rehab.”
