Did Heat Demonstrate Dirty Plan Of Attack For Celtics In Game 1?

Before the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat went head-to-head in Game 1 of their first-round playoff series, Kristaps Porzingis foreshadowed how the clash between the Eastern Conference foes would go down. “We have to expect them to be ultra-aggressive, ultra-handsy,” Porzingis told reporters during a team practice before Game 1, per CLNS Media. It wasn't at the start of the second quarter when fresh off a breather, the Heat trailed the Celtics, 26-23, with plenty of time to readjust. Miami's “ultra” aggressiveness, which Porzingis envisioned, arrived at Boston's parquet floor in the fourth quarter while the Celtics were ahead by 16 points with under a minute left in regulation.
