During an interview after the against the Boston Celtics, Miami Heat guard Caleb Martin talks about the importance of stealing a game on the road.

“It’s always a good thing if you can get one on the road… It’s a tough place to play and a tough team.” Caleb Martin said during the interview.

Martin also said about the team condition, as several important players are injured. he said that he should play aggressive in next games.

“Being passive for my team only hurts us, especially when guys are down. Having the mental stability and the confidence to play through slumps or play through bad possessions or a loss, I think it’s so big, especially in the playoffs, to have a short-term memory.” Martin said.

Caleb Martin had an impressive performance in Wednesday’s game against Boston

Caleb Martin had an impressive performance in Wednesday’s game against Boston, leading the Heat to a 111-101 victory in the Eastern Conference first round. He scored 21 points, in addition to grabbing one rebound and one steal. This was Martin’s second consecutive start against the Celtics, and he played beyond the expectations.

He made several three-pointers and was one of three Heat players to score over 20 points, a feat that he had accomplished four times during the regular season. After a low-scoring game in the previous match, Martin came back strong and will be relied upon to help the team’s offense in Game 3 and the rest of the series.

Unfortunately, the Heat will be without their top scorers, Jimmy Butler and Terry Rozier, in the upcoming games. Rozier is dealing with neck spasms, while Butler is out due to a sprained knee. Both players’ return to the playoffs remains uncertain.

The Heat will need Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo to step up and lead the team, but the rest of the supporting cast must also contribute to cover for the absence of Rozier and Butler. Martin has a history of performing well against the Celtics, averaging 19.3 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 1.7 assists in the Eastern Conference finals last year.
