Stunning. Crushing. Devastating. Photos tell the story of Celtics’ last-second win over Heat

The Miami Heat came within one tenth of a second of advancing to the NBA Finals on Saturday night in Miami.

Instead, Miami now faces the reality of having to return to Boston for a Game 7 on Monday night.

Everything turned on the final play of the game after a furious 14-4 run, led by Jimmy Butler, put the Heat ahead by one after three free throws from Butler with three seconds left.

But after Marcus Smart’s three-pointer rimmed out, Derrick White got the rebound and hit the basket as time expired to give Boston the win and break the collective heart of a sellout crowd at Kaseya Center.

“That’s the only place it could have bounced to hurt us,” Erik Spoelstra said. “Sometimes things don’t break your way. I don’t think there are any regrets on that. It’s just a shame. This is the way this season has been. It’s been one hell of a series. I don’t know how we’re going to get this done, but we’re going to go up there and get it done. There has been nothing easy for this group. We’ll have to do it the hard way. We wish we could tip off [Game 7] right now.”

Boston had missed 11 consecutive shots from the field before that White game-winner.

The Celtics became only the fourth team in NBA history to tie a best-of-seven series at 3-3 after losing the first three games.

Miami will try to close out the series for the fourth consecutive game on Monday at 8:30 p.m.
