Viewers who were watching Wednesday night’s Eastern Conference Finals opener between the Celtics and Heat on YouTube TV lost the feed of the game for nearly the game’s final 5 minutes.
That may not have been such a bad thing for Boston fans in the end – the Heat beat the sloppy Celtics, 123-116, with Boston committing four turnovers in those final minutes – but it was exasperating in the moment.
With 4 minutes and 47 seconds left and the Heat leading the Celtics 114-110, Miami coach Erik Spoelstra called a timeout, and TNT went to break.
