  • The Celtics got their doors blown off in Game 4 in one of the worst losses in NBA history. The Mavs played harder and executed better. John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal says the Celtics had their opportunities to stop the game from getting out of control, but they just couldn't make the right decisions at the right times to stop Dallas. In the end, it's not that big of a deal, and they have a chance to win a championship at home.

    As a Mavs fan I will admit that the Celtics looked very uninterested in winning this game. Seems like they wanted to try to get the win in Boston. The only problem is the way they got beaten tonight might had gave my Mavs some confidence to try and steal one there in game 5. I wouldn’t bet on them winning but if they mange to do it, that will definitely put the pressure on Boston.

    38 points was about right for the disparity in effort between the two teams. Dallas was basically running on adrenaline at 110% and the Celtics were dragging arse at around 70%. The Celtics could've lost to any team in the NBA last night.
    Basically we saw Dallas at their absolute peak and Boston at their absolute bottom.

    • @maferreira1984
      @maferreira1984 3 месяца назад

      You haven't seen Dallas at their absolute peak if Luka hasn't outscored your entire team in the first half and finished with a 50 point triple double, with all the other guys playing like they did yesterday, or better. (Mind you, Luka was 0-8 and Kyrie was 1-6 from 3, there hasn't been one single game in which both played their usual.)
      But you are not going to see that, tho, mainly because of Luka's knees, Kyrie's history with Boston and how SCARED the Mavs role players look once they step in the TD Garden. If both teams had the same level of experience and played average-to-great (not horribly as Dallas in games 1-3 and Boston in game 4), this series would have been pure gold. Two VERY good teams in terms of potential, but VERY unstable psychologically (especially Mavs).

      As a Mavs fan I agree. The way the Celtics lost is a bit strange, but overll they did exactly what they had to in the 4 games so far. Won 3, lost 1 now have a chance to close out the series at home. Only thing that COULD be a bit concerning: The Dallas role players found their rythm. Basically all of them were completely off the first 3 games. Not only from 3, but also around the basket. They have no pressure whatsoever now. So lets see how they all play in game 5. Will the shots still fall, or will they go back playing like they did in the first 3 games?

      Even if you get a gentleman's sweep, you got to meet the real Dallas Mavericks at least once. While I agree that this is exactly how the plan goes and Boston is still heavily favorites to close in 5, you can just imagine how if the Mavs were more experienced -- especially role players, who only in game 4 finally didn't walk into the court SCARED -- this could have been a much different series. Maybe the psychology has changed a bit, as Mazulla pulling off before 4th quarter did not look good at all in that aspect. The mental/attitude carryover to game 5 will be key, cause if Celts choke and this goes back to Dallas, you're in trouble.

      he has been mediocre all playoffs & blogs like this have done nothing but turn up the smoke & mirrors screeching “u dont know ball!!!11” if u think 6-22 shooting & min8mal impacts in the 4th quarter is “brilliance.”

    I think at first I wasn’t happy we lost in this fashion but like you say John, whether it’s one point or 100 points the win is all that matters. I guess in this instance losing by 38 is still a loss whether we played well and still lose by 1 point. I didn’t get the best feeling purely off the body language of the Celtics. It felt relaxed in a bad way and they didn’t look sharp. On the other hand I think Mavs did make some adjustments but were mainly things that they should have been doing 3 games ago. They sped up bring the ball and generally got straight into it. But other than that it was mainly just more effort on defence and offence. Tatum definitely got in his head which wasn’t great, he basically did what Luka did last game. We missed a lot of pretty good looks but again mostly forced not off the action we normally run. They looked slow and eventually the scoreboard reflected it. I’m hoping we blow them out on our home court. Let’s end the season with some Gino time.

    It was an outlier, Dallas were a step quicker all night. All Dallas' role players stepped up at the same time. Our starters were discombobulated from the opening tip. All 5 starters had absolute stinkers (maybe White I can give a pass to) but that just won't happen again. The Refs let Dallas do whatever they wanted on D to start. I'm sure next game will be called way different. Tatum got into his feels when the calls weren't going his way, exactly like Luka last game. Gentleman's sweep at home.

      Nope, not an outlier. Even if you get a gentleman's sweep, you got to meet the real Dallas Mavericks at least once. While I agree that this is exactly how the plan goes (3-1 going back home) and Boston is still heavily favorites to close in 5, you can just imagine how if the Mavs were more experienced -- especially role players, who only in game 4 finally didn't walk into the court SCARED -- this could have been a much different series. What you saw is the way of playing that got them to the finals, then they had a collapse and played like complete garbage until 4th quarter of game 3 -- the unexpected factor being Luka fouling out, otherwise it would be 2-2 and a real finals.
      Maybe the psychology has changed a bit, as Mazulla pulling off before 4th quarter did not look good at all in that aspect. The mental/attitude carryover to game 5 will be key, cause if Celts choke and this goes back to Dallas, you're in trouble.

    I had the CEltics winin this series in 6 so i cannot be mad that they lost a game. However, i did not like, at all, they way they lost it. The game was over before then end of the first half. Futhermoe, Dallas play a very good defensive game and hit some shoots taht they were not hitting but it was not like they were on fire, having the game of their lives. That was weird. To see The Celtics almost playing like they were just killing time.
    Now you gotta win Monday! No more BS!

    This was the worst 'game' of the the Mazzulla era. John. I don't know if the boys saw the early fouls given to Luka with old Scott Foster and said forget it. This was the worst game I have ever watched live. Derrick White shot the air more than the rim. Jrue uncharacteristically gave turnover after turnover. Dodgy vibes if you ask me.

    I think it is just human nature by refs but it’s really bad optics
    As far as the Celtics the players esp JB and JT looked like we got this and relaxed
    They let down for sure
