White's putback as time expires lifts Celtics past Heat, forces Game 7 in East finals

The Boston Celtics were a tenth of a second away from elimination.

Derrick White owned that final moment. White scored on a putback as time expired and the Boston Celtics moved to the brink of the greatest comeback in NBA playoffs history, holding off the Miami Heat 104-103 on Saturday night to force a Game 7 in the Eastern Conference finals.

White became the second player in NBA history to hit a buzzer-beater with his team trailing and facing elimination — Michael Jordan’s “The Shot” for Chicago against Cleveland in 1989 being the other.
