Game #3 - Boston Celtics 100 - Miami Heat 98 ( Celtics lead 3-0 )

Ultimately heartbreak.

But come on guys, how many of you realistically thought that Miami would fight their way back into this one. When Boston ended the third quarter up by 8 points I had a kind of sinking feeling. Boston were just out of reach....basically the Heat had no answers to Ray Allen and Paul Pierce.....and throughout this game the experience of the Celtics told. They showed patience and justified arrogance despite good defensive pressure from the Heat, executing on countless occasions at the shot clock buzzer.

Then with the experienced players ailing or sitting on the bench.....the youngsters finally ignited and gave us a glimpse of what they can do......Dorrell Wright and Michael Beasley both made significant contributions and all of a sudden the Heat found themselves in a game at 98-98.

Then came Pierce......I really shouldn't go into this.....in fact I won't.

Then came Pierce.....game, series, season?
