Boston Celtics and Miami Heat set for Game Seven

Boston Celtics seek to make NBA history by being the first team ever to prevail after being down 0-3 in a Conference Finals when they meet the Miami Heat LIVE Tuesday on ESPN.

The Heat looked destined to secure a spot in the NBA finals after leading the series 3-0 going into Game Four. 

However, Boston denied Miami a clean sweep and have won the next three playoff games to lock the Eastern Conference Finals at 3-3, setting up the deciding game on Tuesday AEST. 

Boston would write a significant chapter in NBA records with victory in Game Seven.
