LOS ANGELES: Boston poured in 16 three-pointers in a dominant 110-97 victory over the Miami Heat on Thursday (Friday in Manila) that kept the Celtics alive in the NBA championship chase. The Celtics will be trying to take one more step toward becoming the first NBA team to rally from a 3-0 deficit to win a best-of-seven playoff series. "The only thing that can stop us is us," Celtics forward Jaylen Brown said in an on-court interview. More importantly, the energetic Celtics harried the Heat into 16 turnovers that led to 27 Boston points. The Heat, who won the NBA title in 2006, 2012 and 2013, still only need one more win to reach a seventh NBA Finals.
