Celtics' 16-game win streak ends in loss to Heat

Given that the Boston Celtics had trailed in the fourth quarter in eight of their 16 straight wins, it was clear it would take an extreme effort to snap their streak. The Celtics trailed for most of Wednesday night's game against the Miami Heat but were within a point late in the fourth quarter. It extended Miami's lead to four and stalled the Celtics' run for good, and the Heat eventually handed Boston its first loss in 35 days, 104-98.
