The Boston Celtics continued their trend of inconsistency against the Miami Heat but this was on the positive side. They bounced back from the embarrassment against the Magic and continue to be one of the hardest teams to play on a back to back. The Magic game must have been a great wake up call for the Celtics because this may have been their most complete game of the season.
The Celtics have often had to make up for incredible offensive shortcomings on the defensive end. There have been very few games that the Celtics won because of their offense but it was different against the Heat.
