The Miami Heat are one win away from advancing to the NBA Finals. After opening up a 2-0 series lead against the Boston Celtics on the road, the Heat completely demolished the Celtics Sunday night in Game 3, pulling away with a 128-102 win. From the opening tip, the Heat just looked like the more prepared team in every aspect of the game. By the end of the third quarter, Miami had opened up a 30-point lead, and Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla waved the white flag, sending in reserves to start the fourth quarter effectively ending the game with 12 minutes left.
It was a team effort for the Heat, with Gabe Vincent leading the way with 29 points, followed by 22 points from Duncan Robinson and 18 points from Caleb Martin. For the Celtics, there weren't many bright spots, as Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown combined for just 26 points. After a complete steamrolling of Boston in Game 3, the Heat can now go for a sweep Tuesday night against the No. 2 team in the Eastern Conference and take another trip to the NBA Finals.
