Dallas desperately needs to get more guys involved. Too much dependence on Luka.

Costly dumb plays by Boston allowing Dallas to retain the lead-- and more importantly for Dallas, they have DJJ contributing already this early. This is big since he was shut down the first game and Mavs need that 3rd player to help out Luka with Kyrie still struggling.

That's only a legal play in the NBA. In FIBA, that's a travel.

Man it's so obvious that there's tiers to this game. It goes:
1. Luka
2. Celtics
3. Rest of the Mavs

Give Luka 1 of Jrue or White and he wins this series.
