Despite a strong performance from Jimmy Butler, who scored 26 points, the Heat were unable to overcome the Nets' strong offense.

The Nets' defense was crucial, holding the Heat to only 27 points in the fourth quarter. Apart from the outstanding efforts of Durant and Irving, James Harden added 14 points, and Patty Mills came off the bench to contribute 12 points.

With this victory, the Nets improved their playoff standing, while the Heat faced a challenge in securing home-court advantage in the first round.
