This game was an adventure and the Celtics played well enough to beat the Heat but cannot let leads dwindle against the Lebrons. Celtics led by 10 at the half, and then at one point saw the lead go up to 21 with thanks to some hot shooting from Ray Allen. However, the lead came down to 3 in the 4th. Then the Celtics started relying on the big 3 to get them out of the jam and Ray was killing it from deep (5-6 from 3 point land), Pierce was taking it to the hole easily on Q, and KG was hitting his long jumpers than swearing at no one in particular.
Even though Wade was a little bit more realistic tonight than he was in game 4, the boy still dropped 31 in what could be his last game for the Heat. Before this series started I was thinking he was the only one who was going to return to his team, but he seems pretty ticked off at his teammates (and rightfully so). No one other than Mario Chalmers (20) was the only other Heat player to score over 10 points.
Rajon Rondo was 2 rebounds away from a triple double scoring 16 points, 12 assists, 8 rebounds and 4 assists. It will be interesting to see how he does against stronger PGs in Cleveland.
Anyways the games begin on Saturday.
