Williams gave the the Celtics a nine-point lead after hitting a 3-point shot with around six minutes left in the game. He began talking trash to Butler, who came back on the next possession and hit an and-on on Williams.
The two players got heated and were head-to-head for a moment before players and referees separated them. Butler converted the bonus free throw to bring the lead back to six as the Heat continued their furious run to end the game.

Jimmy Butler leading bunch of misfits to 2-0 lead in Eastern Conference Finals
It was Max Strus and Kyle Lowry who kept the Miami Heat in Game 1 before Jimmy Butler took over to get the win. In Game 2, it was Gabe Vincent, Caleb Martin and Duncan Robinson who came up huge to help Miami take a 2-0 lead over the Boston Celtics.
Vincent hit a jumpshot and two free throws in the clutch to put the game away, while Caleb Martin had a playoff career-high 25 points off the bench. Robinson also came off the bench to score 15 points, hitting a couple of 3-point shots during the Heat's furious rally.
However, it was Butler who completed the comeback. He tied the game at 100 with a jumpshot before making another one to take a two-point lead with around two minutes left. He finished with 27 points, eight rebounds, six assists, three steals and two blocks.
Bam Adebayo added 22 points, 17 rebounds and nine assists, and the Heat are now two wins away from the NBA Finals. If they reach the NBA Finals, they will be only the second No. 8 team to do it in league history.
