A flat start and too many turnovers are just scratching the surface of the causes of an embarrassing home loss.

Led by Bam Adebayos 31 points, 10 rebounds, six assists and four steals, the No. one seed Heat defeated the No. two seed Celtics in Game three, 109-103. Kyle Lowry added 11 points, six assists and four steals for the Heat in the victory, while Jaylen Brown led all scorers with a Playoff career-high 40 points (14-20 FG), along with nine rebounds for the Celtics. The Heat lead this best-of-seven series 2-1, with Game four taking place on Monday, May 23

Celtics star Jaylen Brown knows he needs to be a lot better in the turnover department if Boston is to win this Eastern Conference Finals series vs. the Heat.
