In a seven-game series, the Miami Heat emerged as the winners in the Eastern Conference Finals against the Boston Celtics. The Boston Celtics made an impressive comeback by winning three consecutive games, creating a historic moment. However, a member of the Heat organization seized the moment to taunt and mock the Boston Celtics as they were eliminated from championship contention.

Caleb Martin gained attention for his remarkable offensive performance during the Eastern Conference Finals. Interestingly, after being released by the Charlotte Hornets, he joined the Miami Heat and played a crucial role in helping the team advance to the NBA Finals. Additionally, another player from the Celtics joined Jimmy Butler and Co, indicating that the Celtics inadvertently assisted their rival team in strengthening their roster.

Jimmy Butler’s teammate gets petty

Max Strus went undrafted in 2019. He joined hands with the Boston Celtics where he was averaging just over five points, two rebounds and an assist. After being released by the Boston Celtics in the past, Max Strus joined the Miami Heat and had the opportunity to seek revenge against his former team as Miami advanced to the NBA Finals. Strus, who averaged a modest eight points per game in the Eastern Conference Finals against the Celtics, decided to mock Boston for their shortcomings.

This led to a chaotic situation as Strus playfully taunted the Boston Celtics. Max Strus caused a stir when he uploaded a screenshot of a Boston Celtics fan page announcing his release from the team, seemingly in an attempt to mock his former organization. However, fans did not take kindly to this behavior from the Miami Heat star. They were quick to point out that his own performances have not been any better than average.
