The Boston Celtics have made some waves by winning Game 4 and Game 5, clawing their way back into the Eastern Conference Finals against the Miami Heat.
The series looked like a sweep, and Jimmy Butler has been talking trash to the Celtics since Game 1. An iconic moment occurred in Game 3 when he dramatically called a timeout for Boston after a Heat run. And now, a Celtics fan has used that gesture against him.

With the Miami Heat down by nearly 20 points in the 4th quarter, a fan stood up and made the timeout gesture, showing that the game was over and the Celtics had won. Boston looked down and out after an embarrassing Game 3 loss but has since shown enough fight to make the series competitive.
This isn’t going to stop Jimmy Butler from talking trash, he seems unfazed by the fight the Celtics are putting up. Most people expected Boston to win this series, so their winning two games shouldn’t come as a surprise. But the momentum should concern Miami a little, as they don’t want to become the first team in NBA history to give up a 3-0 lead in a playoff series.
Jimmy Butler Is Sure The Heat Will Win In Six Games
Game 6 is now crucial for both teams, considering that it is a home game for the Miami Heat. If they lose, they will have to play a Game 7 on Boston’s home court with all the momentum against them. So it is paramount for them to get the job done in the next game if they want to go to the NBA Finals. And Jimmy Butler has gone as far as to guarantee that they will see it through.
“We just got to play better, start the games off better. Make it more difficult for them, they’re in a rhythm since the beginning of the game but we’re always going to stay positive knowing that we can and we will win this series. We’ll just have to close it out at home.”
Jimmy Butler took just 10 shots in the Game 5 loss, but he has scored 27 or more points in three other games during this series. If he stops being passive and takes the game over, the Heat have every chance of finishing the job. The Boston Celtics can smell blood, though, and it will be incredibly fun to see which team gets the last laugh.
