THE FACTS: The Miami Heat started the defense of their NBA title with a 120-107 victory against the Boston Celtics Tuesday at AmericanAirlines Arena.
On the night the Heat received their championship rings, guard Dwyane Wade led all scorers with 29 points while LeBron James added 26 points and 10 rebounds. James spent the final eight minutes in the locker room because of cramps. The Heat led by as many as 19, but the lead was trimmed to four with James on the bench. Forward Chris Bosh scored the Heat's final seven points to close things out.
The Celtics were led by Paul Pierce's 23 points.
QUOTABLE: "It was good to cap this night off with a win. And it was an emotional time for all of us in our organization pregame." -- Heat coach Erik Spoelstra on playing the same night as receiving the championship rings.
THE STAT: Guard Mario Chalmers had 11 assists, production the Heat isn't used to receiving from the point guard spot. It meant Wade and James were among those put in position for easy baskets.
TURNING POINT: The Heat held a comfortable lead for most of the way, but pushed it to double digits with a 12-3 run at the end of the third quarter. The most impressive part was the stretch occurred with James in the locker room being treated for cramps.
HOT: Emotions aside, Ray Allen (19 points) seemed dialed in for this one from the beginning. After hitting his first 3-pointer in the first quarter, he came up with several big shots. A consistent perimeter threat is exactly what the Heat wanted from Allen.
NOT: Kevin Garnett was virtually non-existent for the Celtics. Not only was ineffective on offense, he also failed to provide any inside defensive presence. There hasn't been many games where Garnett was third-best option in the frontcourt.
GOOD MOVE: James made an effort to control the boards early. He had nine rebounds by halftime to help make up for the Heat's lack of size. This is what allows the Heat to play Bosh at center and Shane Battier at power forward.
BAD MOVE: James left the game for a second time with eight minutes remaining. It was then when the Celtics made their late move, including a 14-3 run that cut the lead to four points. The Heat looked somewhat vulnerable without James.
NOTABLE: The Heat played without reserve centers Joel Anthony (hamstring) and Dexter Pittman (leg) ... James had no turnovers. Last year, he had just two games as such ... Olympic medalist Usain Bolt and Miami Dolphins running back Reggie Bush were among those in attendance.
UP NEXT: For the Heat, Friday @ New York, Saturday vs. Denver, Monday vs. Phoenix. For the Celtics, Friday vs. Milwaukee, Saturday @ Washington, Nov. 7 vs. Washington. - Zábava

He started the season with a tough 3 and ended the season with a tough 3.
How fitting
Man i remember always hating (with respect) the big 3 in Boston but always absolutely loving Ray. Being a die hard Heat fan there where some tough times after the chip in 06'. Lebron coming to Miami was such an exciting moment to be a Heat fan, and when Ray came on board in 2013 it was icing on the cake. I wish i could watch another season with that roster. The good old days
Rey Allen is a legendary player of nba...
Correction, I'm pretty sure they were saying "We Got Ray!"
Boston deserves that ray allen leave

@@samsepiol05590 cry bitch
@AbilityMerchant what
Fvk Miami
@@basedceltic2871 fuck boston
This was the time when the Celtics still think they are a championship caliber team
I mean they lost in 7 to the heat the year before
We love ray!!!
I though Celtics fans were saying DOA, dead on arrival 💀
KG didn't even look at Ray. Just goes to show who really had your back when things change.
He left KG and joined their rival....
what do you expecr? of all the team you coild join, you join your rival team? same thing happen with Van Parsie and he was hated for it. Its a passion thing. Its like cheating, it's betrayal.
Keep watching the news surrounding your precious Celtics and you will find out how and why teammates leave their team (whether they have won championships or not). This is a business, not a college fraternity.
its funny that fight between rando and wade coz now they're teammates in chicago
i used to hate ray for leaving but he was a free agent he can do whatever the fuck he wants too..... i hope he wins
ray allen is always the bEst wherever team he is in.. no doubt to that ;)
love dwade
it sucks to see someone on the other team play for the new team
Ray Allen just got himself another ring...pretty sure it WASN'T a poor decision.
Fr33man1988 Durant too i guess
BBBeRT yea but ruin his legacy
I feel sorry for the Celtics, playing against one of there follow teamate of 5 years, good luck to Boston Celtics and to the Miami Heats
miami heat is really a superteam back then. Lebron fans discredit having a prime wade and bosh on their team with ray allen
UP TOP BRO HEAT AND CELTIC FOR THE WIN
KG was so cold :s i feel sorry for ray
Anyone else see Tyron Lue at the celtics bench???
0:22 LUL yes
He asked if any one saw tyron lue and your going on a rant?
@star Well he ain't lying about LAMelo being the goat
star ok boomer
how many points did Ray scored?
What’d KG say at 2:59?! It sounded to me like he was saying you didn’t even get a shot blocked to Ray. I don’t know though.
whatta rey allen! Great for miami!
Sweetie, while I would be disappointed to see those guys leave the Heat, I do understand this is a business. I would wish them well and keep it moving. Just like I did when Shaq left Orlando for LA, Sapp left The Bucs for The Raiders and Vince Carter left for Phoenix. I'm from Florida by the way.
pierce and garnett went to a rival team too now
Finally...you know this is what the majority of folks were saying. They were looking at the Celtics fans and shaking their heads in confusion.
@0:24 Kevin garnett: who you??lol
go miami go,,you did it lebwade
Beef starts now !
never heard of a person who is both a Boston and Heats fan...lol they are like rivals! pick one
dj Khaled at 1:32
After finding out what happened between ray kg and and pp they was jealous of ray Allen simply because he could go further with his 3pt shot
I'm a Heat fan and i can understand that Celtics don't like us and you probably hate us more now since Allen came to the Heat. But the guy got too much class to be disrespected. Yes I've never liked the Celtics and always wish them to lose but i can't hate on Allen because he's such a class act
Make a choice Heat or Boston they're to big of rivals to like both
I see Uncle Jeff
Ray may not be playing all that much now but just wait until the play-offs.
I am a knicks fan a boston fan....
he left boston that's why kg doesn't talk to ray
Wow KG didn't even look at Ray, and I thought they were boys
ray aLLen is really a big hElp.. in miami HEat.
How can you be a heat fan and a boston fan??? You know that is one of the biggest rivalries in the NBA. As a heat fan I don't accept you as one.
You can't beat them join them
Wade should put the ball on Rando.
I didn't say you, I sarcastically asked if KG was going to stop talking to Doc. I hate to tell you this, but there's a thing in the NBA called free agency and these guys can go to bed playing for one team and wake up playing for another. The owners don't care about friend or foe, their interest is their bottom line and what's best for them... Ask Danny Ainge.....
miami will win 2 more championships in a row with ray
Oh yeah? Haha my bad then. Thanks for the clarification.
Just because their rivals doesn't mean you can't like them both? It's hard like having one friend and another friend that both hate each other, but it's still possible. I like both the Heat and the Celtics too. If you don't accept me as a Heat fan, i dgaf, you're just some random dude on the internet.
does kg hate allen now?
0.25 Allen trys the hit Garnett
@redsi2003, you mad bro you mad, yeah you mad
Who are you to tell me who can and can't cheer for? You don't have to accept me because, I DON'T KNOW YOU and I DON'T CARE what you have to say!!!!!
And I bet that up.
MiAMI's not a back to bak champoins without Ray Allen
Lol its like saying im a laker fan and a spurs fan im a true laker fan even though their in 8th now also im a lebron fan not a heat fan lol i was a fan of him since cavaliers days like nba 2k7
LOL KG didn't want any of him 0:25
Ray knew the Celtics needed him he went with Lebron in his Prime weak move Ray
ESPN brought me here
Now rondo just won a championship with LeBron
0:25
lol wade about to throw the ball at rondo
Oop
Rondo, you cant beat wade!
Or allen
Wisest choice made by ray. Celtics suck
Giovani 17
Celtics needed Ray for plays like this. Without Ray, celtics is garbage in my opinion.
No way in hell are you a Boston fan and Miami fan...doesn't happen.
A person who supports 2 NBA teams, as a Celtic fan myself how does that work??,
KG just lost his number. I lost my respect.
rondo? bad
Haha real sports fans don't cheer for two championship caliber teams. I smell a bandwagoner
Rondos a thug
R.I.P #20 BIGGEST TRAITOR IN NBA!!! HE DIMINISHED HES LEGACY!!!!
Lol he’s a two time world champion. Led the league in 3pt field goals in nba history until last week. He’s a Olympian. he was dominant in his prime before he even played for Boston. Boston was nothing until the big three came together. Finally he’s a hall of famer. How is his legacy diminished? Your jumping on the band wagon because Boston fans are butt hurt . Don’t be a follower. SMH
