This is exactly it. We can talk about matchups, Irving struggles whatever.

If the role players cannot hit wide open shots well it is going to be a sweep.

It's sad to see because it's not even what Boston is doing. It's just an epic choke by the Mavs shooters.

I disagree about not giving the Celtics credit. They have completely taken away the corner three, mavs shooters aren't good enough to hit the above the break threes

Dumb pass to Gafford with Porzingis right on him at rim.

My goodness dude at least try to play defense lol

The only defense he plays is when he gets burned so badly that the offensive player doesn't expect the poke steal from behind.

Celtics defense is cracked

Luka being exposed as a defensive liability.

So does Luka ever play defense? Or even try at least?

Small jersey patch ads don't bother me but all of these projected digital ads on the court look so tacky and takes you out of the immersion of the game pretty easily

Porzingis has been an unbelievable addition to this team. Just the perfect fit

His defense is inexcusable. No way they will win a game if he keeps giving up that non effort on defense.

Celtics had an impressive third quarter but as always this season, when they get to that nice 10-15 pt cushion they revert back to being Antoine Walkers (dumb plays after dumb plays, and settling for 3s).

Continue this and Luka will get the opportunity to steal this one.

Hauser can't hit anything in the playoffs he played well in game 1 but otherwise he's been atrocious in the finals. Celtics will probably pick the team option for next year, but if he does this again next year...

DAL needs to seriously reconsider Kyrie as a second option. Dude is called the most skilled player ever. He is a 2nd option he should be averaging at least 30 ppg in this series

Could this be anymore Cavs vs Warriors though? This is like the original championship Dubs with Bogut, Livingston and Lee vs Lebron and Kyrie surrounded by okay role players. These teams are holding up a mirror.

Celtics would be a legit super team if their best/ 2 best players were superstars.

Mavs missed FTs are the difference in the game rn

jfs1000d · Post #999 » by **jfs1000d** » Mon Jun 10, 2024 1:56 am

Boston has had so many open 3s. Gotta believe Mavs need this game due to that horrible shooting. It own’t be dupolicated.

Hausier needs to be attacked more by Dallas. Leave him open.

Who wins Game 2 of the NBA Finals?
