The Boston Celtics pulled off an incredible win in Game 6 against the Miami Heat. After going 3-0 down, the Celtics have miraculously come back to win 3 games and force a Game 7. The win in Game 6 came down to an incredible last-second buzzer-beater from Derrick White, which had to be reviewed after the final buzzer.
Jayson Tatum spoke about the tension in the air when the tip was being looked at. “Oh my god. That was incredible,” Tatum said during his post-game press conference. “Man, we drew up a play. They kind of took the way that I was trying to get the ball. Jimmy and Struss jumped out to me, Smart came in and shot it and we just crashed the glass. Everything was just a blur after that. D-White tipped it in.”
“That felt like the longest 10 seconds ever, waiting for confirmation if he made it or not. I’m still in disbelief. That sh** was crazy. I’m glad we got another chance, another opportunity. Far from over, still an uphill battle but it feels good to give yourself another chance.”
