The two best words in sports – Game Seven.

The Heat have forced a Game 7 after defeating the Celtics in Boston with their backs against the wall. Jimmy Butler delivered an all-time playoff performance in Game 6, going for 47 points to keep his team's season alive, sending the series back to Miami for a win-or-go-home contest.

Butler poured in 17 of his 47 points in the fourth quarter, looking as sharp as he's been all series when the Heat needed him most.

The Celtics got 30 points from Jayson Tatum and 20 points from Jaylen Brown, but the two stars only took one shot each in the fourth quarter. If the Celtics are going to win, they'll need much more from their dynamic duo when the game reaches crunch time.

Will the Heat make the most of homecourt advantage and advance to the NBA Finals for the second time in three seasons or will the Celtics snap an 11-year drought and get back to the league's biggest stage?
