Boston head out on the road in desperate shape after dropping the first two games of the Eastern Conference Finals.

The Celtics have now lost no less than seven of their last 13 games in this season’s playoffs.

They dropped two games as they saw of Atlanta in the first round, and then lost three times as they went the full seven games with Philadelphia in the conference semi-finals.

Boston found themselves on the brink as they trailed 3-2 heading into Game 6 against the 76ers, but they levelled the series with a 95-86 win and then clinched with a 112-188 victory.

The Celtics have now dug themselves into an early hole against Miami, suffering back-to-back defeats at home, losing 123-116 and 111-105.

Miami Heat Form

Miami been in sensational form in the playoffs so far, winning 10 of their 13 games to march on.

The Heat needed two shots at the Play-In Tournament to make the postseason, but have had no such issues since then.

They downed number one seeds Milwaukee in the first round, 4-1, and then ousted New York in the conference semi-finals, 4-2.

Miami are now in firm control of the Eastern Conference Finals thanks to back-to-back wins in Boston.

The Heat stunned the Celtics 123-116 in Game 1, and then pulled off another upset as they took the second game 111-105.
