You are not wrong but to be fair PJ never seen a playoff game before and Gafford is not a matchup problem for Boston so unless Kyrie can find some magic beans this gonna end in 5
Especially the blocks. For a whole team to only have 1 block the entire game is a disgrace. That's why the Celtics should attack more. They have no shot blocker.

The difference between the Celtics and Mavs is that the Mavs need to rely upon Luka and Kyrie to both have outstanding performances in order for them to win.

You're right. The Celtics at their worst performance are tied up games. That's why they had difficulty beating the Pacers. The Pacers are just as deep as the Celtics but Celtics had the experience that the Pacers were lacking and Haliburton got hurt as well. The fact that anyone can score on their starting line also makes defending them near impossible because that eliminates double teams because if you leave a Celtic open they can start the 3 barrage or invade the paint.

I mean it’s not too far fetched it’s just the Celtics are super stacked. Even “good” teams aren’t this stacked. Porzingis, Tatum, and brown are all star caliber players. Their role players are also defenders that can score as well. Gonna be very tough for the Mavs. If Luka and kyrie beat this team it’ll be a legendary run but idk it’s looking bad. Lively played horrible, so did gafford. Pj Washington was ok, he’s the only one from the role players from the Mavs that was actually pushing and not folding in the moment. Kyrie played horrible but I don’t expect him to keep playing like that the problem is after this blow out if the games are close the Mavs are gonna regret loosing this game this badly because the Celtics made it look easy
Getting KP/Horford to guard Washington and Tatum to guard Lively/Gafford was genius. If Luka tries to put KP/Horford in the pick n roll, they are happy to close out on him because Washington isn't a lob threat. If he tries to get a screen from Gafford/Lively, then Tatum switches onto him.
A lot of people got stuck in the in the moment the Celtics have one of the deepest benches in the NBA. Yes, the Mavericks have Kyrie and Luca, but the Celtics have five guys that can go off any single night.
Perk spoke facts. Jalen Brown has been getting disrespected leading up to the finals with all the Luka, Tatum, Kyrie talk. He's the best two-way player on the floor. KP is up there too.
Tatum scored 16 on 16 shots. He was the one chucking ill advised shots at the end of the 1st half that got Dallas back in the game. Jaylen Brown was the most impactful player on that team, and it isn’t close.

@@hado.uken_ I like Kyrie but people act like Boston traded him 😂. He chose to leave and team up with KD so I don’t get why they think he needs redemption.
I can’t see this series going 7, the Celtics are just too versatile defensively, they didn’t even attempt to double or blitz Luka because they didn’t have to, that allowed their defender to stay home on corner 3’s and Luka kick outs, essentially making Luka dribble the air out the ball killing the flow of the offense, hence him only having 1 assist, Celtics in 6

@@colorada3000 Luka didn't play well and was a big part of the reason the Mavs lost. Sure he got his 30 points, but what did he do beyond that? His shooting efficiency was below average, he had 1 assist and 4 turnovers, and the Celtics targeted him when the Mavs were on defense and it worked, weak defense from Luka. Sometimes you gotta look past points per game to see what's really going on. Brown played great defense and scored efficiently. If the Mavs want to win, Kyrie needs to actually show up, and Luka needs to put up a similar number of points on fewer shots and pass the ball better, not turn the ball over so much, and play better defense.
@@colorada3000 Let's call it like it is. The Celtics made Luka look like a one-dimensional, mediocre-efficiency volume scorer. I know he has the potential to be much better, as a playmaker, defender, and scorer; he will probably show it at some point in this series, if not in game 2. But don't go glazing Luka after that game. Porzingis and Brown alternately looked like the most dominant players in the game, if you consider overall impact on the game and well-rounded play.
@@colorada3000 Luka didn’t even come close to outplaying Jaylen Brown 😂. Brown actually defended getting 3 blocks and 3 steals along with cooking luka whenever he was guarding him. Browns impact on defense was enormous game 1.
I think he did good defensively, the problem is they were up 30 and then let Dallas comeback to 8 while only 1 player from Dallas actually played fine, thats literally why people in media and just fans in general didnt believe in them in general. On paper they are so much better that it should not even be question who wins this series, but episodes like these idk... What if instead of 29 it was 15 and they started to make a run at the end of 3rd not at the end of 2th. Its insane to think that favorites at home, up 30 at one point, other team dont play good like at all and u somehow let them to comeback to 8...
@@Mrt-yg9mw teams make comebacks all the time. Runs are made. It's a rare thing to see a team hold a 20 plus lead throughout a whole game or whenever they run a lead up that high. Even the worst teams cut into leads.

(10:05) Dray Carter: " _The Mavs had no answers for the Celtics defensively_ " Gametape: The Mavs had an answer for Jayson Tatum (the Celtics' top guy) Dallas did the following things to Tatum: 1) Picked his pockets (multiple times); 2) Forced him into horrid passes (multiple times); 3) Baited him into taking that janky step-back three-pointer (multiple times); 4) Swarmed him at the rim; and 5) Psyched him out If Tatum doesn't unleash a series of *floaters* then *Dallas' defense is going to continue to feast on him*

6 game losing streak against Boston, how come so many in the media were giving Mavs a hope in this series? Boston are here to get what is theirs. Mavs just lucky to stand in the carpark at the NBA finals.
The Boston Celtics are a different animal. Boston has size, athleticism and shot making ability and their defense is incredible when they step up. I don’t see this going past 5 games.
No way Stephen A is saying "we thought Porzingis was hurt" about his predictions. Mad Dog was right. Celtics can give one of the top 5 players a rest each game and still win.
Rudy is a really good defender though, KP is taller & can jump which helps him combat Gafford & Lively’s athleticism at that eight. Rudy really just needs a more consistent offensive game
Every time Celtics win, its because the other team played bad or choked etc.. never gives Celtics their credit for their defensive effort.. same old espn.
im lowkey starting to think Jalen Brown is the best player on the Celtics... I just see massive improvements from him every season. Jason Tatum is good...hes great even but he seems to be not improving at the same rate as Brown..idk just how i see it
The Celtics played like a championship team and locked kyrie and luka down defensively like they did a few years back when they swept Brooklyn with a healthy kyrie and KD (who was better back then then luka is now)
Difference between KD's calf injury in the 2019 playoffs and KP's injury was that KP had a month and a half rest compared to the 2 weeks of rest Kevin Durant had. Rest matters
The reason Mavs lost the game last night, it was not the crowed, not Porzingis, it was Stephen ASmith!!!!! He had a diabolical game by praising Kyrie to the moon( we all know he really hates Kyrie) he was putting a vicious psychological pressure on him by saying that he is the best, he is the only one who can beat the Seltics, he has to show up, over and over. Kyrie just folded , plus the crowed, and all this had a very negative effect on his mind. Porzingis was a fluck. Kyrie even made a subtle comment to his teammates not to pay attention to social media afte the game. You will see a very different Kyrie and the Mavs on sunday
@@CriticalLion275 could it have been that Celtics were just flat out better? Could it be that the Mavs just didn't have an answer for the Celtics? It is possible that Boston is just a better team overall
@@ShaadsComicsandBeers for all the years that I watch the Mavs( because of Luka really) I have never seen Luka with only one assist, Porzingis is a good player when he is on, like the last time. Seltics are not a better team, the only 2 players that are good are Jrue and Brown, and ocasionaly White. And yes, they were are better team at the game but I am telling you that Kyrie was not him self ,and by the way Tatum is the most overrated player in the NBA. All these so called analysts are desperately trying to make him the face of the league, but he is just a a avarage player. Brown is 10 times better then him

And the bad part is he’s not going to turn it around this series. If mavs win it won’t have nothing to do with kyrie
When he checked out game he had 30 or so and mavs still done 25. He's like 80s MJ. Him scoring a lot isn't enough to beat this team
@@RL-ww5ev Dude was gassed. He had some okay defensive possessions here and there, but he was getting abused and it had him tired
Spend an entire segment talking about the team that lost good one. Thank you perk for giving JB his flowers
JB worked on his handles in the off season. He used to have elementary school handles...
Still does 😂
😂😂😂😂
@@realestateomarr
How does JB has elementary school handles while playing in the NBA? He’s playing at the highest level.
@@loganblack4885 if you watch the games you’ll see he doesn’t like having the ball in his left hand
He still getting 300 millions so yea I'll have elementary handles too...
The way the media kept talking about Porzingis we won the chip with him missing 90% lol
Jaylen Brown really just went off last night, he set the tone throughout the game on both ends. Undeniable
oh yeah let’s talk about the losing team
No one cares for the Celtics , womp womp
@@DoctorWallowit’s ok you’ll be even more pissy watching them hoist the trophy
Yes, let's.
@@jtellis653an how 💩you will look
@@DoctorWallowkeep crying lil buddy
Anyone gonna talk about how kyrie is still effected by the boston crowd?? Arguing with fans during the game, dribbling off his foot, shots hitting the side of the backboard, and airballing layups.
Kyries haunted by the leprachaun, and then to taunt the fans after the game... 😂😂 goodluck buddy ☘️☘️☘️☘️
6:50 Kyrie needs to remember they don't like him. There is no redemption tour in Boston for him...he needs to come to battle
@@hado.uken_ it's okay if he forgets we'll remind him in game 2.
@@hado.uken_ I like Kyrie but people act like Boston traded him 😂. He chose to leave and team up with KD so I don’t get why they think he needs redemption.
Nobody paying attention has forgotten what an emotional manchild Uncle Drew can be this has to be keeping him up at night lol
I can’t see this series going 7, the Celtics are just too versatile defensively, they didn’t even attempt to double or blitz Luka because they didn’t have to, that allowed their defender to stay home on corner 3’s and Luka kick outs, essentially making Luka dribble the air out the ball killing the flow of the offense, hence him only having 1 assist, Celtics in 6
Lmao, you are taking Mavs very lightly, Mavs lost game 1 to clippers n thunders by double digits n won the series. You really think KP will drop 20 again n Kai will go for 12, just watch tmr
@@rafaelisslaam1894the Celtics aren’t the thunder or clippers lol. This is a whole different beast. Also KP scored around his average and he doesn’t even have his legs. He’ll only get better
Do you think Tatum gonna play bad again? You forget Boston didn’t have a great game and still blew em out
@@rafaelisslaam1894 lmaooo Kp littearly averaged 20 for the entire season tf are you talking about? Of course he’ll drop 20 again, Kyrie has also LOST 11 STRAIGHT GAMES to Boston, The Mavs have lost 5 straight to Boston overall all mostly blowouts and that’s with Luka scoring 30 in most of those games, The Celtics are just better and it’s very obvious
*5
The crowd rattled Kyrie? Ah No, Boston played with great defense. 😂
Kyrie's past is nipping at his backside... Karma... here we come
Exactly this, Boston limited Kyrie!
12:02 Celtics defense had Kyrie seeing ghosts Sam Darnold style
Jaylen Brown went tf off last night!!!
Luka out played him still lol. Tatum is even more of a joke
@@colorada3000 Luka didn't play well and was a big part of the reason the Mavs lost. Sure he got his 30 points, but what did he do beyond that? His shooting efficiency was below average, he had 1 assist and 4 turnovers, and the Celtics targeted him when the Mavs were on defense and it worked, weak defense from Luka. Sometimes you gotta look past points per game to see what's really going on. Brown played great defense and scored efficiently. If the Mavs want to win, Kyrie needs to actually show up, and Luka needs to put up a similar number of points on fewer shots and pass the ball better, not turn the ball over so much, and play better defense.
@@colorada3000 Let's call it like it is. The Celtics made Luka look like a one-dimensional, mediocre-efficiency volume scorer. I know he has the potential to be much better, as a playmaker, defender, and scorer; he will probably show it at some point in this series, if not in game 2. But don't go glazing Luka after that game. Porzingis and Brown alternately looked like the most dominant players in the game, if you consider overall impact on the game and well-rounded play.
@@colorada3000 Luka didn’t even come close to outplaying Jaylen Brown 😂. Brown actually defended getting 3 blocks and 3 steals along with cooking luka whenever he was guarding him. Browns impact on defense was enormous game 1.
@@alexanderhenry9133They played him one on one which is possible with Boston’s defenders. Great analysis
Luka got away with punking Edwards and Gobert, but he can't do that against JB or Porzingis.
Boston ain't folding in the fourth quarter, can't be going down 25 early
He had a good game, they were not stoping him. Its just the rest of the team didnt do much.
He scored 30 though......If his teammates at least hit their shoot the game would have been more interesting....
He had a good game. His co-star on the other hand...
He had 30 and 10, He had no help.
I’m glad we won but Tatum needs to be better and more aggressive. No doubt about it
I think he did good defensively, the problem is they were up 30 and then let Dallas comeback to 8 while only 1 player from Dallas actually played fine, thats literally why people in media and just fans in general didnt believe in them in general. On paper they are so much better that it should not even be question who wins this series, but episodes like these idk... What if instead of 29 it was 15 and they started to make a run at the end of 3rd not at the end of 2th. Its insane to think that favorites at home, up 30 at one point, other team dont play good like at all and u somehow let them to comeback to 8...
@@Mrt-yg9mw teams make comebacks all the time. Runs are made. It's a rare thing to see a team hold a 20 plus lead throughout a whole game or whenever they run a lead up that high. Even the worst teams cut into leads.
Celtics fan here. He had an okay game but I agree.
@@Mrt-yg9mw yeah thats why watch Boston fold. They choking everytime theyre on the finals especially JT and JB.
@@lapdance2122 you say Everytime like this ain't just the 2nd time they've been in the finals.
Can we start putting more respect on Curry’s name now realizing how he is able to create better separation with his off ball movement and handles than Kyrie against Boston and any team period..that’s two bad back to back games for him..there are levels to this and kyrie is good but he definitely not curry level
(10:05) Dray Carter: " _The Mavs had no answers for the Celtics defensively_ "
Gametape: The Mavs had an answer for Jayson Tatum (the Celtics' top guy)
Dallas did the following things to Tatum:
1) Picked his pockets (multiple times);
2) Forced him into horrid passes (multiple times);
3) Baited him into taking that janky step-back three-pointer (multiple times);
4) Swarmed him at the rim; and
5) Psyched him out
If Tatum doesn't unleash a series of *floaters* then *Dallas' defense is going to continue to feast on him*
You right about that. Celtics do not need JT to go off to win.
Lmao they got Monica up outta there quick

6 game losing streak against Boston, how come so many in the media were giving Mavs a hope in this series? Boston are here to get what is theirs. Mavs just lucky to stand in the carpark at the NBA finals.
I expected Porzingis to do this. Literally got in a pushing match with my friend on Tuesday night about it😂
😂 mavs in 6
As a wolves fan I’m the most excited! 😂😂😂
Sour grapes smh
Why get excited when yall going to get swept in the finals anyway if that’s the case? 😂😂😂
I told you the Timberwolves fans were going to be temporary Celtics fans these 2 weeks
Oh here we go with the excuses on why we picked the Mavs to win the Finals...
And this EXACTLY why people say SAS don’t fw Kyrie whole team got spanked and bro immediately went to kyrie😂
Well he is a star and he didn’t show up
Kyrie was awful tho.
Kyrie looked a whole lot like Norris Cole last night
Brother he’s the second best player on the team 😭😭😭😭😭
He got locked down on offense and cooked on defense. He was awful
Oh my how the tone has changed in the media hahaha feels good
Udonis makeup has him casket ready
Molly loves cutting people off. Let people speak.
That’s her job
She's horrible
So was it kyrie or the crowd? After sas just said the Boston crowd and was still talking lol😅
She was trying to push a narrative.
The Boston Celtics are a different animal. Boston has size, athleticism and shot making ability and their defense is incredible when they step up. I don’t see this going past 5 games.
Didn’t he just apologize to him 😂
Boy, they were proud of that question lol
No way Stephen A is saying "we thought Porzingis was hurt" about his predictions. Mad Dog was right. Celtics can give one of the top 5 players a rest each game and still win.
Series is over. Boston is your 2024 champions. Mark this comment and save it.
Of course Stephen a comes to work when kyrie got a bad game he come to work but when kyrie play good he a no show
They are still glazing the Mavs, haha
Porzingus played the kind of Defense wolves fans pretend Rudy plays
Rudy is a really good defender though, KP is taller & can jump which helps him combat Gafford & Lively’s athleticism at that eight. Rudy really just needs a more consistent offensive game
Jayson tatum praying they win next game to hit the reporters with the famous Kobe quote “ jobs not finished” 😂😂😂
It’s a bad sign. This series is over in 5
Y’all still think Luka and Kyrie are better than Tatum and Brown? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
It’s one game lmao
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Luka and Kyrie still outscored Tatum & Brown..
@@RoyaltyGotHits that usually happens when you take almost 50 shots
Porzingis carried.
WHY IS SAS STILL ON ESPN!!!??!??
Celtics in 5
Every time Celtics win, its because the other team played bad or choked etc.. never gives Celtics their credit for their defensive effort.. same old espn.
im lowkey starting to think Jalen Brown is the best player on the Celtics... I just see massive improvements from him every season. Jason Tatum is good...hes great even but he seems to be not improving at the same rate as Brown..idk just how i see it
Brown is the mvp for a reason. I'm all mavs but dang Brown and KP were ready!!! But...they can't play that good all series 😮😮😮
Now SAS back riding KP joc strap 🤣😁😂🤣
We did expect KP to get 20 that's his avg for the year 😂
Not in 20mins,poppin off🎉
SAS better stay on that side lol
Perk & haslem the only ones giving JB he's props. Stephen A ain't mentioned jaylen brown one time 🤦🏽♂️ I really hope jb wins finals MVP 😂
Great to see UD on first take
UD sounds very credible!
KP been doing this all year welcome to the show experts😂😂🍀
The Celtics played like a championship team and locked kyrie and luka down defensively like they did a few years back when they swept Brooklyn with a healthy kyrie and KD (who was better back then then luka is now)
Kyrie got aura points for finally playing
it's not a bad game for mavs. it's a reality check....sweep!!!!!!!!!!
Difference between KD's calf injury in the 2019 playoffs and KP's injury was that KP had a month and a half rest compared to the 2 weeks of rest Kevin Durant had. Rest matters
Yup
Everybody silent now what happened with mavs in 4? 😂
Nobody said that 😂
The reason Mavs lost the game last night, it was not the crowed, not Porzingis, it was Stephen ASmith!!!!! He had a diabolical game by praising Kyrie to the moon( we all know he really hates Kyrie) he was putting a vicious psychological pressure on him by saying that he is the best, he is the only one who can beat the Seltics, he has to show up, over and over. Kyrie just folded , plus the crowed, and all this had a very negative effect on his mind. Porzingis was a fluck. Kyrie even made a subtle comment to his teammates not to pay attention to social media afte the game. You will see a very different Kyrie and the Mavs on sunday
So the Mavs lost on a Jedi mind trick
@@ShaadsComicsandBeers he was a great contributor
@@CriticalLion275 could it have been that Celtics were just flat out better? Could it be that the Mavs just didn't have an answer for the Celtics? It is possible that Boston is just a better team overall
@@ShaadsComicsandBeers for all the years that I watch the Mavs( because of Luka really) I have never seen Luka with only one assist, Porzingis is a good player when he is on, like the last time. Seltics are not a better team, the only 2 players that are good are Jrue and Brown, and ocasionaly White. And yes, they were are better team at the game but I am telling you that Kyrie was not him self ,and by the way Tatum is the most overrated player in the NBA. All these so called analysts are desperately trying to make him the face of the league, but he is just a a avarage player. Brown is 10 times better then him
Let’s just prepare to congratulate the Boston Celtics on raising banner 18 from now
Crazy how much perk hates on Boston and then the next sentence proceeds to act like he’s the heart and soul of the organization and he’s why they won in 08. Dude was the least important player on that team
1 game , let’s go out an win game 2 as well.. no reason to give them any hope
