Chris Bosh was moved by the raucous ovation he got when checking into the game... Kevin Garnett scored 26 points and grabbed 11 rebounds, Paul Pierce scored 19 - including a huge 3-pointer over LeBron James' outstretched arm with 52.9 seconds left - and the Celtics moved one win away from the NBA finals by beating the Heat 94-90 on Tuesday night.

 

In Celtics-Heat Series, Refs Favoring Heat So Far

I’ve been watching the Boston Celtics battle the Miami Heat in the NBA Eastern Conference Finals, and so far the referees seem to favor Miami.

Celtics top Magic, take 2-0 lead in East finals

Too slow? Too old? Try two wins from the NBA finals. Indeed, the Boston Celtics look like they saved their best this season for when it mattered most. "I know," Boston's Paul Pierce said. "It's starting to look that way." Pierce scored 28 points, Rajon Rondo had 25 and the revived Celtics again avoided a late collapse to take a commanding lead in the Eastern Conference finals with a 95-92 victory over the Orlando Magic in Game 2 on Tuesday night.

Senh: Can't believe I'm calling Boston Celtics the surprise of the post-season. Everyone has written them off because of their recent injuries. Now that they're all healthy, they're playing nearly as well as when they won the championship two years ago. We'll see if the Lakers really got tougher when they face the Boston Celtics again. Los Angeles won last year because Boston was eliminated by Orlando. If KG was playing last year, I highly doubt the Lakers would have won.
