It took 4 tries, two moves, and some waiting for some players to age, but LeBron James and crew at last overcame the Celts in a playoffs series.
With all three of the 2000s tournament dynasties now out of the 2011 NBA Playoffs, it now becomes considerably more hard to guess which squad has the best possibility of winning the championship. The fact that the Grizzlies and Thunder are still battling out west contributes to the supposition.
James, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh all coalesced around the Miami Heat for one purpose: beating the Celts in the playoffs and having a chance at an NBA Tournament. And in five contests, Boston was eliminated. The Miami Heat took care of the final competition last evening with a 97-87 win in Miami, in spite of trailing for most of the competition. However the Celtics’ accidents and age at last caught up with them and the Big Three from Boston were passed down the stretch by the Big Three from Miami.
Would the Celts have been able to win a couple of more contests or even the complete series if they were healthy? Who knows about the eventual outcome, but it was apparent last evening that Rajon Rondo was totally ineffectual for the C’s. Shaq was additionally out last evening with lingering soreness from his calf/ankle injury. However the Miami Heat netted their win, too, with some clutch three-pointers from James, who scored the squad’s final 10 points of the competition.
Out in the Western Conference, the Thunder and Memphis Grizzlies were back at it following a day off following the triple-overtime competition on Monday evening. The Grizzlies appeared fatigued the complete competition following the 1st couple of minutes, and Kevin Durant and the Thunder took edge. By the end of the 1st half, OKC was up by 11, and concluded the competition 99-72 over Memphis, who missed one shot following yet another all evening.
The Grizzlies are still a challenging squad and have gone further this year than anyone would ever have expected. But that triple-overtime competition seemed as though it took a toll on Memphis, which shot just 36% from the field last evening. Even their free throws were off, as they went 14-of-23 for the evening. The Thunder now lead the series 3-2, but expect the Grizzlies to battle back in Game Six and push the series to a decisive Game Seven in Oklahoma City.
