The conference finals are underway in the 2023 NBA playoffs. The Eastern Conference finals get going Wednesday night as the Celtics host the Heat for Game 1. It’s a familiar conference finals matchup in the East. The Heat and Celtics are meeting in this round for the third time in four years. Miami won in 2020, but Boston was a winner in seven games last year.
In the West, the Nuggets own a 1-0 series lead against the Lakers. Denver has not lost at home this postseason and got another stellar performance from Nikola Jokic in Game 1. The series resumes Thursday night.
