Boston takes on Miami
Two Eastern Conference teams that tend to have a highly anticipated matchup find their seasons going slightly different . With Miami missing their Star and defensive anchor in Jimmy Butler since November 18th they find themselves on the edge of the playoff bubble, struggling to string together wins. The Celtics on the other hand without their defensive big man Robert William have relied on the offensive powerhouse of Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum to get them off to a hot start. The Celtics, (17-4) and (9-1) over their last ten games will be home looking to continue rolling against the Miami Heat (10-11) who no doubt will be looking to steal a win, Wednesday 11/30 at 7:30pm EST at the TD Garden.
