Chris Bosh's return just may be on the horizon and would give the Heat their trademarked trio once again. Without Bosh, the Heat managed to push past the initially suborn Pacers but have now hit a tie with the formidable Boston Celtics. The series sits at 2-2.
The recovery time for Bosh's abdominal strain had been labeled as "indefinite" and a return for Game 5 on Tuesday night is not a certainty. However, even a lighter load of minutes than usual may be enough to fortify the middle for the Heat as it struggles to stifle the Celtic offense.
Despite a late game comeback, the Heat fell for the second game in a row on Sunday night. Dwayne Wade was forced to carry the team alone for the last 1:51 of play thanks to Bosh's absence and Lebron James's fouling.
