Here is a recap of day 5 of the NBA playoffs featuring wins from the Heat and the Thunder.

Heat doesn't do justice to what Miami was putting on at TD Garden in Game 2 against the Boston Celtics.

To even the series at one, and switch home-court advantage, the Heat made 23 3-pointers.

Miami's 3-point shooting percentage in the playoffs is a team record, and it's just one away from matching the record for any game in the team's history.

Along with his career-high 14 assists, Tyler Herro, who finished with 24 points and six 3-pointers, also broke Jimmy Butler's record of 13 assists in Game 2 of the 2020 NBA Finals for the most assists in a road playoff game in Heat history.

Oklahoma City Thunder beat the New Orleans Pelicans

With a commanding victory over the New Orleans Pelicans, the Oklahoma City Thunder increased their lead in the series to 2-0.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, a great player for the Thunder, demonstrated why he's a strong candidate for MVP with a game-high 33 points, while Chet Holgrem added 26.

With Zion Williamson still sidelined due to injury, New Orleans found it difficult to gain enough momentum to match OKC's explosive offense.

The Thunder shot 48.3 percent from three-point range and 59 percent from the floor, with all five of their starting players scoring in double digits.

OKC made NBA history by being the first team to have all of their points come from players under the age of 25 in a playoff match.
