Celtics Vs Dallas Mavericks

Celtics Take a 2-0 Lead Over the Mavericks in NBA Finals

Bostons Depth Proves Too Much for Dallas

The Boston Celtics took a commanding 2-0 lead over the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA Finals on Monday night, winning 105-98 at home. The Celtics were led by Jayson Tatum, who scored 30 points, and Jaylen Brown, who added 29 points.

Luka-Kyrie Duo Struggles

The Mavericks were led by Luka Doncic, who scored 26 points, and Kyrie Irving, who added 19 points. However, the two stars struggled to find their rhythm against the Celtics' tough defense. Doncic shot just 9-of-24 from the field, while Irving shot just 6-of-15.

Celtics Ground Mavericks' Bigs

The Celtics also did a good job of neutralizing the Mavericks' big men. Kristaps Porzingis was held to just 10 points, while Dwight Powell was held to just 6 points. The Celtics' size and physicality made it difficult for the Mavericks to get anything going in the paint.

Conclusion

The Celtics now have a 2-0 lead in the NBA Finals, and they will look to take a commanding 3-0 lead when the series shifts to Dallas for Game 3 on Wednesday night. The Mavericks will need to find a way to get more production from their stars and they will need to find a way to slow down the Celtics' offense if they want to stay alive in the series.
