Celtics take revenge on Heat with big win to book place in 2nd round of NBA play-offs

BOSTON PUT PAST BEHIND TO PROGRESS

NEW YORK - Boston Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla believes every game is different, and his team had not been affected by last season's loss to the Miami Heat in the National Association Basketball (NBA) Eastern Conference Finals.

The result of that mindset? A 118-84 home thrashing of the Heat on May 1 to complete an emphatic 4-1 series victory and book their place in the second round of this campaign's NBA play-offs.

The post-season top seeds - who lost 4-3 to Miami and failed to make the NBA Finals last season avenged that loss in spectacular fashion with a one-sided wire-towire rout at the TD Garden.

"I don't really worry about what happened last year," Mazzulla said.

"At the end of the day I liked how we approached the series, regardless of who we were playing.
