A gesture from the Boston player on the Miami shooter raised the temperature.
It was a simple action in the fourth quarter that raised the temperature between Miami and Boston. Duncan Robinson defends on Jaylen Brown. The Heat shooter begins by surrounding the Boston winger, before blocking his arm. Logically, the referees whistle the foul.
Except Robinson didn’t remove his arm. Brown gets angry and frees himself, sending his defender flying. “I just think it was a dirty move to be honest. I think it was dangerous, unnecessary and excessive,” explains the Miami player.
Jaylen Brown thus collects a flagrant foul. “There was no problem for me. I think he knew exactly what he was trying to do, holding on to me, because he didn’t want to defend. They called the foul, but he was still trying to hang on, so I tried to free my arm. »
But he also sends a message to his evening opponents, ultimately beaten by the Celtics. “Miami is a team known for being physical, and doing a lot of these little things, which disrupt the game a little. You have to know how to protect your space and use it wisely. I have a feeling Duncan Robinson knew what he was doing, trying to attract who knows what. I don’t know what he was trying to do, but I bet you he won’t do it again. »
