GAME 2 NBA FINALS 2024: Dallas Mavericks (0-1) vs. Boston Celtics (1-0)

[dirkfansince1998]

So far only 3 assists.

Luka is the entire offense. His shot making is incredible but it's not sustainable.

[DallasMaverick]

Kidd’s ill advised challenge was the key play of that quarter. Mavs fortunate Boston couldn’t shoot straight. They need to settle down.

Did you realize that in Game 1, THEY FINISHED THE GAME WITH AN UNUSED CHALLENGE?!?!?

Surprised Kidd didn’t get fired on the spot. Could have turned the entire game around.

[BigDirk41]

4-10 on free throws

[Luka77]

Have to take advantage of FT,

[BigDirk41]

Back to back nice plays by DJJ

[BigDirk41]

Kyrie is shrinking in the moment. Luka can't do it by himself. He'll run out of gas.

[JamesConway912]

Might have something there with the Kleber + DJJ frontcourt.

[Chicagojk]

When mavs go small, Celtics go right to the rim. Needs to use small ball sparingly.

[BolsDamols]

We will need 25-30 points from Kyrie to win this game

[MarkAguirreWrathofGod]

Interesting he hasn’t gone back to Gaff.

[Chicagojk]

Kyrie needs to join the party. Gave up a few rebounds, odd defensive gambles, and not really punishing them on offense

[BigDirk41]

Might have something there with the Kleber + DJJ frontcourt.

What would that be? Maxi can't score, fouling nonstop, and now passing up 3s. He doesn't block shots or even try. We need Maxi from 2 or 3 years ago. DJJ is playing well.

[Chicagojk]

Mavs have definitely mucked things up. Still not a great feeling as I am not sure we have guys ready to step up on offense

They are defending drives a lot better than the bigger lineups.

Playing sold straight-up and help D.

[BigDirk41]

I wouldn't say that. They are driving at will with Maxi in there because there's no shot blocker.

[BolsDamols]

Looks like someone is trash talking Luka near the sidelines - keep it up pls

[BolsDamols]

dont overhelp on tatum

[BigDirk41]

Nice first half, but we have to find another level in the 2nd half and Kyrie has to score 15 or so in the 2nd half.

[Chicagojk]

Mavs desperately need someone to join Luka. Jones made some really nice plays.

Kyrie hasn’t been good enough and not sure we have anyone who is going to step up and score 15 points in the second half.
