MIAMI (AP) — Max Strus’ heel caught the attention of the NBA replay center with the Miami Heat facing elimination — again.

It was eerily reminiscent of a play where Strus made a corner 3 in Game 7 of last year’s Eastern Conference finals against the Boston Celtics, only to have it erased later by NBA replay officials watching in Secaucus, New Jersey.
