Stephen A Smith slams door on Jimmy Butler and Miami Heat
The Boston Celtics slammed their authority on Miami Heat at Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals, with a resounding win which left Jimmy Butler and Stephen A Smith with a bitter feeling after the game. It was an important game for both the teams as everyone wanted the glory so they can establish a lead and the Celtics got it done. In the first half, Miami Heat had the game well-controlled but soon it was a changed story as Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown stepped up and dominated their rivals. The Celtics in the third quarter outscored the Heat by 32-16 and that particular stretch eventually won them the game.
The final box score stands at 80-93 favoring the Boston Celtics. The Heat squad under the leadership of Jimmy Butler wasn’t having a good time as they struggled in all aspects of the game from shooting to playmaking. While the Celtics were just comparatively better than them. This time it was Jaylen Brown making the loudest noise possible while running coast to coast and running the offensive end too.
Jaylen Brown scored 25 points, Jayson Tatum added 22 and the Celtics are now one win from the NBA Finals. They ran away after halftime to beat the Miami Heat 93-80 on Wednesday night and take a 3-2 lead in the Eastern Conference title series. Bam Adebayo scored 18 points and grabbed 10 rebounds for the Heat, who shot 32% in the game after shooting 33% in Boston’s 20-point win in Game 4. Gabe Vincent added 15, Jimmy Butler had 13 and Duncan Robinson scored 11 for Miami.

“My Time in South Beach is officially OVER !” – Stephen A Smith loses hope for Jimmy Butler’s Heat
Stephen A Smith has never hesitated in being outspoken and honest, as he revealed today while talking about the bleak chances of Miami Heat , going into Game 6. . After pointing out what went wrong for the Heat in their 93-80 loss on Wednesday night, Stephen A slapped Miami with the bitter truth that the series is done and dusted
“I think this series is over, I don’t think there’s any way in hell that the Miami Heat go to Boston in Game 6, Friday night, and escape and force a Game 7. My time in South Beach, I sadly say to you, is officially over.” Smith said .
Butler has proven his worth as one of the top players in the modern NBA era and he’s done marvelous things for the Heat this season. Butler is 32 and in great physical condition, however the perfect combination of a championship winning team, like the Heat this year, comes once in a blue moon. The likelihood of Miami keeping its core around him for a long time, is very slim. The 6-time All-Star will be too old to be the leader of the team after another rebuild. Losing out on a Championship opportunity like this could be heartbreaking for Heat Fans and Jimmy Butler too.
The Heat had a difficult time firing up their shooting boots with Kyle Lowry and Max Strus even failing to score and combining for 0-of-15 from the field. Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo led the way, but their performance was not on point. Boston will look to close out the series in front of their home crowd in Game 6 on Friday night, while the Heat will look to bounce back, extend their season, and force a decisive Game 7.mith had a lot of regret in his statement not because the Heat are on the cusp of elimination, but simply because he will now be forced to leave South Beach, a place where he has enjoyed staying at this postseason.
