Boston Celtics 113-125 Miami Heat: Twitter explodes as Bam Adebayo sends Jayson Tatum & co. packing | NBA Playoffs 2020
The Miami Heat emerged victorious against the Boston Celtics in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals to book a ticket to the NBA Finals. They will now face LeBron James and the LA Lakers, hoping to win their 4th championship.
Bam Adebayo and Jimmy Butler helped the Miami Heat win their 6th Eastern Conference titles against all odds as they were the underdogs in both series against the Boston Celtics and the Milwaukee Bucks.
The Boston Celtics, on the other hand, will be disappointed at how the 4th quarter in this game turned out as Jayson Tatum and co. simply crumbled under pressure. Although as many as four Celtics players scored 20 or more, there was hardly any other source of scoring. Brad Stevens and his men will be disappointed at how they crashed out of this year's playoffs, and it's back to the drawing board for the Boston Celtics.
Let's take a look at the best Twitter reactions from Game 6.
