The difference is that the Mavs kept it close to the whole game until the end of the 3rd. I feel this is more similar to game 1 against the Clippers, which was losing the game in the 1st quarter.
LD is still injured, kyrie was bothered and so it let to the 'newcomers' a bit nervous. On the other Hand you KNEW they want to shot 3 so zo guard 3p line was obvious idk
Also we shot 25% from deep. So lot of improvement avaiable. Also, i dont think kp can keep this Type of 2way performance up the whole series. Tatum hat 6tos both jjs played not overwhelming. Just dont be stupid to let kp guard by green or kai obviously. Mavs in 6 again.
Losing by 19 was generous. On balance, we should’ve lost by 30. It changes nothing though, we can still go back to Dallas 1-1 if we show up in game 2. Mavs in 6.
I think the best way to limit the threes from this point is to get more of the long rebounds that were to be had. Contests looked good to me, it was the 2nd chances and Kyrie’s no show that kept this from being competitive.
Everyone on this Mavs team needs to play better. More importantly Kyrie Irving. Kyrie needs to channel his Mamba Mentality to help his team win 💯 LETS GO MAVS!!
This is the others first time in the playoff. I'm sensing its a nerve thing by the mavs roster. Only Luka dont seem bothered by all the pressure.. Kai at one point seems very good in the midrange but could not continue to score in the fourth. Look the celtics is elite shooter and defender. Everyone literally knows how to make contested threes in that stacked roster and they will not win playing like this. The energy needs to be like the third quarter every single time if they even wanna have a shot winning against them..
I hope they make an adjustment. 1st of all quit leaving their players open behind 3.Defend like we did Harden and Paul George by running them off 3 point line. I know there are gonna be switches but someone will have to help Luka. Saw so many times people blow by him. Gotta somehow prevent Porzingis from going off like that again. We got their lead down to 8 but those 2 back to back traveling calls on Lively and Irving killed the momentum. Irving needs to step up also. Big time.
Dare I say even Doncic needs to be better? They’re going to keep locking up our shooters unless Kai and Luka punish them for playing us 1v1. Lukai need to combine for 70 minimum.
@@seesidesummerhouse6112 Luka had 30, what you mean he didn't punish? In fact, the only time I had hope was in the 3rd quarter when he hit shot after shot until we were 8 points apart. Then he left and we screwed again
@@PedroJr17 it’s not good enough. Don’t get me wrong, he played well, and it’s Kyrie that needs to turn it up the most, but Luka needs to be better too. He needs to force Boston to double up on him instead of playing 1v1 on drop coverage, if not you’re either expecting the shooters to hit miracle shots, or you’re expecting Gafford /Lively to post up or move to the perimeter.
Need to get away from the pass all around the shot clock until it's about to expire then pass to luka. Need to get some shots for the guys. Luka is a beast no doubt but don't just pass the ball around for no reason then give it to luka and hope he can save us with a shot.
Mavs always lose Game 1, but always make great adjustments for Game 2. One positive for me is all the turnovers Dallas forced on Boston. They don't dribble well. If you look closely, Tatum, White and Brown Carry the ball profusely. ANT did that too. This means you can attack the dribble. Also, Mavs had dudes in Celtics faces for a lot of those 3s. May need to block a few of those, like the previous 2 series. At least "play the hand". About Lively's 4th & 5th fouls. Replay showed he was straight up and Brown forced contact. Challenge those. But he needs to not drape himself all over KP, imo. If Lively hedges back, enough for Green to get through the KP screen, you won't see Green defending KP at the elbow. And Hedging is not fully going under. Note that White is a great spot up 3 guy, not Soo much off the dribble 3 guy.
Luka gonna have an all time finals this was the worst we’ll be and he had 30/10 they can’t hold him the rest of the squad needs to show up ESPECIALLY KAI(btw luka maxi and pj were the only ones ready)
It's about energy, not how much you practice. As per KAT's comments from Wolves, practice doesn't help, is just how much you put into the game and handle pressure. Mavs were similar to me today as Wolves against them in game 5, but I do believe they can change that in game 2 👍
We’ll get game 2. Go back home hold court. Be in the driver seat sitting pretty. Think about it we lost game 1 a couple series. Chip belongs to use. Letsssss Gooooooo!
Go mavs bounceback GOD WE GUIDE U ALL stay focus stay sharp and patience and calm..luka be consestent of your play making pj and djj be focus in outside shoting kyrie do ur best this is final boys👏👏👏🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏
Dallas what is wrong with yal, you finally get to the NBA finals and then you play shit. Lively used to be under the net ready to get the ball incase of any miss and you keep him behind the 3 point line on offence. And maybe cover the 3 point line. Stop acting like you in a regular season game your in the flipping NBA Finals, play like it. Luka need to back up his words he said that it a white man game, backup your trash or don't say anything. Irving your a great player but play some more screens so a 7'3 giant is constantly guarding you like. You were inconsistent the lot of yal.

Kyrie, PJ and DJJ got looks like they all alone in the arena and missed badly. DJJ also got blocked like he's playing against the monsters from space jam, so many idiotic TOs by Kyrie and lively. Gafford disappeared again like in game 1 against the clippers, green has zero basketball IQ on both ends (that identical dunk block on him again like with naz reid smh 🙄). Abysmal performance by everyone but Luka, this cannot happen again!

Same thing happened in game one against the thunder😂but against the thunder we lost by 22 not like 19 tonight
We lost

Hard to compete when the Celtic have the real Sixth player of the year - the referees
Fr😂😂
Don’t do that kp murdered us last night
@@FreeOfAllFear yea but still brown kept pushing lively then lively will get the foul but idk I know more about fútbol⚽️🇲🇽then🏀
Calls were lopsided. Celtics were bailed out a lot.
One Bad Game and Everybody Hate. Relax People Believe in this Team.
Rushed shots on offense in the first half and allowed too many mismatches/wide open shots on defense
If we guard the 3-point line instead of leaving Boston Celtics players open, we can win the series.
Thought this was common sense before the game started but idk why they thought it was smart to over help on a 2 pointer….
If Dallas is capable of slowing Boston's shooters down they are going to draw bigs out and feast in the paint
I think the best way to limit the threes from this point is to get more of the long rebounds that were to be had. Contests looked good to me, it was the 2nd chances and Kyrie’s no show that kept this from being competitive.
Our rotation doesn’t allow us to get back on real shooters we have to play straight up zone to compete
🤔Switch Kleber with Markieff Morris if not put Josh Green@Pf & Hardy@Sg & Exum@Pg🤔
We gone be aight........
Everyone on this Mavs team needs to play better. More importantly Kyrie Irving. Kyrie needs to channel his Mamba Mentality to help his team win 💯 LETS GO MAVS!!
Stop switching small guys on Porzingis
This was a horrible performance and unacceptable for the finals.
💯
Luka got no help.
It happens sometimes. Stop being negative.
We just gotta stay agressive (Kyrie still has to be agressive) and being consistent as team.
I wish more ppl were fans of the actual game and not all the other stuff like storylines and shit
Kyrie was a disaster this game, and the Mavs just didn't guard the Celtics
Everything was wrong in this game, except Luka, he tried…but he didn’t have help. 😢
Well onto the next game.
PLSSS DO BETTER IN GAME 2 😢
Kyrie you gotta step up. They out there tryna destroy u in Boston and u just letting it happen
Maverick was like a helpless soldier.
I'm afraid winning this final Champion is difficult.
The ability gap is too big, especially for team leaders.
This is the others first time in the playoff. I'm sensing its a nerve thing by the mavs roster. Only Luka dont seem bothered by all the pressure..

I hope they make an adjustment. 1st of all quit leaving their players open behind 3.Defend like we did Harden and Paul George by running them off 3 point line.

Expect for Dončić, the team played bad. Yet I'm not concerned, because was visible the youth and the nervous. Next game will be different.

Mavs only gave up 107 ...they just need to hit shots and get into flow... make the game close in the final minutes
The Celtics have hungry vets.. but not any more talent than any of the teams the mavericks have beaten already...buckle up
Mavs always lose Game 1, but always make great adjustments for Game 2. One positive for me is all the turnovers Dallas forced on Boston.

Please do better in the future games and defend better. This game was an embarrassment. Learn from your mistakes.
He's not going to read your comment nephew
Totally unacceptable but kidd saw Lots of great Things 😢😂
i mean he got them to the finals, no need to shit on him at this point
We'll give him credit until after game 2 adjustments
I think this is the first time I've ever seen Kidd look nervous
"NO we're good" 😭💀
Luka gonna have an all time finals this was the worst we’ll be and he had 30/10 they can’t hold him the rest of the squad needs to show up ESPECIALLY KAI(btw luka maxi and pj were the only ones ready)
0-11 since he was traded from Boston.. let's flip the script still say mavs in 6 MFFL let's go!
LEZ FUCKIN’GOOO
Stop playing Tim he’s useless give Hardy his minutes
These guys had 7 fricken days to practice their shots and they still missing wide open shots. Can’t win like that

Why is he yapping up there mavs win game 2
They smothered us, but I think we can adjust.

use morris 2 to3mins. then washington must guard tatum. then gafford must be aggressive.
