Beantown Rundown: Why Celtics Game 2 loss vs. Cavs is not the same as Game 2 vs. Heat

Beantown Rundown: Why Celtics Game 2 loss vs. Cavs is not the same as Game 2 vs. Heat

After their dominant Game 1 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers, it wasn't far-fetched to expect the Boston Celtics to breeze by their second-round opponent after they largely dominated the Miami Heat in their first-round series. While the C's were competitive in the first half, they completely unraveled in the second half, and lost their second straight Game 2 of the playoffs. In their previous series, Boston fell victim to a historically hot shooting night from Miami, and for a point in time, it seemed like the sky was falling. As you may expect, fans are similarly concerned after this loss to the Cavaliers.
