Hope to take a victory from the Boston Celtics

In the games that followed, the Boston Celtics began employing a load-management strategy, resting certain players in nearly every game. Even Goodwin, one of their core players, was no exception.

Goodwin rested for five games in March, and the team lost four of those games in his absence.

Even so, the Boston Celtics still posted an outstanding 14-4 record throughout March, improving their overall record to 47-4. They sat firmly atop both the Eastern Conference and the entire league, far ahead of every other team.

On April 1st, April Fools' Day, Miami Heat fans seemed to become the punchline of the holiday.

They were completely powerless against the Boston Celtics. Especially in the third quarter, the Miami Heat utterly collapsed, allowing their opponents to unleash a 31-12 run and lose the quarter by 19 points. By the end of the third, there was no suspense left in the game.

In the end, the Boston Celtics easily crushed the Miami Heat 101-72, earning their 48th win and improving to 48-4 overall.

However, LeBron James, whom Miami Heat fans had placed so much hope in, performed abnormally poorly.

He made only 6 of 17 shots for the entire game. He went 3-for-3 from beyond the arc, but made a miserable 3 of 5 free throws, finishing with just 15 points, 4 rebounds, and 1 assist.

Compared with his season averages of 27.1 points, 7.5 rebounds, 7 assists, and 1.9 steals, it was as if he were a completely different player.

It seemed that whenever he faced Goodwin, he instantly lost himself and forgot how to play basketball.

Even after the game, reporters from major media
