It didn\u2019t limit him minutes-wise, but Miami took advantage throughout the entire night.<\/p>\n<p>Miami led by as many as 17 in the second quarter, but Boston managed to cut the deficit to seven in the third. After leading 76-66 through three, Miami started the fourth quarter on a 20-7 run to lead by 23 \u2013 the largest of the night.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Miami is now 88-0 when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/sports\/nba\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">leading a playoff game<\/a> by at least 10 points in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Jimmy Butler dropped 28 points, which hardly surprises anybody. The spark plug for the Heat was Caleb Martin, who dropped 26 points on 11-of-16 shooting going 4-for-6 from three.<\/p>\n<p>No Celtic scored 20 points during the match and Tatum and Jaylen Brown combined for a stunning 13-for-36 from the floor.<\/p>\n<p>The second-seeded Celtics became the\u00a0fourth team in NBA history to force a Game 7 after trailing three games to none, and the first since the 2003 Portland Trail Blazers. With all the momentum on Boston\u2019s side, hardly anyone expected the eighth-seeded Heat to get a victory on the road. But alas, it remains that no NBA team has completed the comeback from down 3-0.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/76ers-replace-doc-rivers-championship-winning-coach\"><strong>76ERS REPLACE DOC RIVERS WITH CHAMPIONSHIP-WINNING COACH<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Boston was the first team to host Game 7 after regaining momentum and tying the series following three straight losses, but the Heat also made history of their own by becoming the first No. 8 seed to make the finals in a full NBA season.<\/p>\n<p>The 1998-99 New York Knicks were the No. 8 seed and made it to that season\u2019s finals, but that season was just 50 games long thanks to the lockout that year.
