Tyler Herro scored 24 points and was an assist shy of a triple-double, rookie Jaime Jaquez Jr. Kevin Love scored 16 and Bam Adebayo added 13 for Miami, which gets this as a reward: a rematch of the last two East finals against the Boston Celtics. It's Round 1 this time, the Heat set to be huge underdogs against the runaway favorite to win the NBA title.
