Herro has a major role to play from being an elite shooter to a perfect playmaker for the team to sing offensively.

Heat vs Celtics Head to Head
According to several online sources, both the eastern franchises have been evenly matched 136 times in the regular season with the Celtics clinching 83 wins and the Heat far behind with 53 wins.
But these records have been computed since the distant past and now the situation has been quite different because of the changes in rosters, coach, and other management staff.
Hence when we only talk about this season’s performance including the playoffs both teams have faced each other six times including playoffs with Celtics splitting the series one-sidedly, 5-1.
Boston Celtics
The Celtics are 9-2 in their last 11 games and 6-1 in their last seven playoff games.
As per Jaylen Brown “The Celtics just put more emphasis on defense making the Heat a little uncomfortable while shooting and that only opened up the game”.
Miami Heat
The Heat offense is no doubt sluttering. Erik Spoelstra has largely depended upon Tyler Herro to create for his team. The Heat will again go aggressive from the rainbow distance and try to outshoot the Celtics. But if that does not work they should somehow penetrate Boston’s high octane defense and that’s a big deal.
