Kyrie must show up, and the Mavs offence must be faster. I am a Laker fan also, but this year the Celtics has the best team and will be champs. Greatings from Brazil!
They have to move the ball with more confidence. A lot of those turnovers last night were not directly caused by defensive interference and were just blatant mistakes. I saw one where Kyrie just threw the ball to no one 😂 they have to stay focused no matter how much defensive pressure is put on them.
Man if they're so good and will be champs you should sell everything you have, remortgage your house and put all that money on the Celtics. And when those fakers will choke, I will laugh at you as I see you moving in to your new cardboard box under a bridge.
Ball rotation is key. That could cause Boston to be off balance a little to open shot availability and open some lanes. Dallas has the skill players to get points, but as shown here Boston was able to shut those players ball because ball rotation was bad for Dallas.
It blows my mind that Kyrie constantly gets passes for performances like that and he has throughout his entire career because people are obsessed with his individual skill... he dribbles ball ooooo so coool so flashyyyyyyyy 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫 ... it's absolute insanity. People wanna put him in convos with the best players/PGs in the NBA but he never gets held to the same standard as them in terms of performance. A few months back, I had people trying to debate with me that he's better than SGA right now. It's absolute insanity and delusion at this point. He's way too inconsistent. I'm sure he'll play better going forward but Mavs have no shot if he's having performances like that.
Absolutely, and it's exactly this that separates him from the likes MJ, Lebron, Kobe, Timmy. Those guys the kind where they're expected to bring it every game, and when that doesn't happen, the media is waiting.
@@onebigadvocado6376 Yes, exactly, and we don't even have to go to the all time greats. It's what separates him from literally any superstar that's the #1 option/leading a team in the NBA today too. SGA, Brunson, Ant, Haliburton, etc. people wanna criticize these guys like crazy when their teams don't do well but Kyrie somehow escapes any and all criticism because he's never the leader and he's always hiding behind a top 3 player. He's having a horrible finals right now and maybe if that continues, people will finally wake up about him, but he had two 9 point games and a 12 point game against the Thunder and was pretty bad for a superstar's standards in that series. Luckily for him, he's playing with Luka. Can you see SGA, Brunson, etc. getting away with having a series like that? If SGA had a series like that, they would've gotten swept. If any other star did, they would've lost the series. But here he is, in the NBA Finals. And yet, people always insert him in convos with these players and people even tell me he's better than them. It's ridiculous.
@@dariovillarruel1010 Well after he just dropped another stinker in Boston, it's impossible to disagree lol. A lot of NBA fans needed this series from him so they could finally stop over-rating him.
Welp, the Celtics are actually legit. People should stop clowning them like they are the same team from the past that had meltdowns when the lights are bright.
I was laughing at everyone saying how are they supposed to guard both Luka and Kyrie, as if the Celtics don’t have one of the best defensive backcourts in the nba in Holiday and White. It wouldn’t have been easy but the team got it done.
@@kemzstudios6489 How is your comment relevant? Luka had a normal game and was unbothered, Kyrie hit a bunch of heavily contested shots then bricked open ones. Everyone who said that is correct, game 1 didnt prove otherwise lmao.
@@Bilious303 Wolves only had Conley to really bring it up, and he sat out a game with a leg injury, so who knows how bad it really was. Celtics have 3-4 dudes and they're accustomed to that level of preasure.
Jayson tatum always has this kinda games. A 15-ish point game. I think he will get better in scoring. Same thing goes to Kyrie and even Luka. It's gonna be a long series 4 sure.
the lack of team ball is really what stuck out the most to me, it was so frustrating to watch. it was always just one guy dribbling up the court and throwing something up. we can still get it done in the next game though, lets go mavs.
Everyone who normally played team ball either was shut down by Bostons defensive scheme or disappeared past the 3 point line, forcing Luka to once again play hero ball
Well said! They were playing hero ball from the opening tip... not sure why they came with that type of game plan. Need to get back to ball movement. That's what got them here.
I’m surprised you didn’t mention the half dozen unforced turnovers from the Mavs too. I saw too many passes that went to nobody. Dumb travels. Dibbling off the foot. Only 6 threes in the first 40 minutes. And the game was still in reach. I personally wouldn’t say the overall defense from the Celtics was unbeatable. For a stretch in the first it was. But the Mavs beat themselves early and kept tripping over themselves. And against a Boston team that will take that advantage and keep kicking you while you’re down, you gotta stay balanced
I knew kyrie shouldn't have apologized 😭 just go in their with a killer mentality, not on no zen, chill stuff lol like an athlete shaving off their cool beard before the playoffs lol
It was an 8 point game with like 4-5 minutes left in the 3rd. I wouldn't say it got closer in garbage time. Dallas made a legit run end of 1st half and start of 2nd half, then Boston turned it back on and kept it around 20 point lead.
Nah, I think you misunderstood. I wasn't referring to the 8 Point deficit as garbage time. After Dallas got it close in the 3rd, that lead increased back to the mid-20s, and THEN in the 4th, things got a little closer as Boston won by 18. My point was that this was technically an 18 point victory, but before garbage time, it was basically a 25 point beatdown.
Early on, Luka made some costly turnovers that shifted made things worse after the Celtics early offensive push, so momentum shifted futher away from Dallas. Early on, they have to stay settled on offence and tenacious on defence. How they were able to get back with eight points is how they can be competitive. If Kyrie is off, he needs to be off the floor for a bit, at least. The Celtics were brilliant on defence, especially Porzingis and Brown. One thing they need to do is stiffle penetration in the paint. That was killing them. When they collapsed it allowed Celtics to quickly rotate the ball to an open shooter on the perimeter.
The problem is their isolation defenders gets blown by frequently, especially Luka and Kyrie, making their defense collapse with other guys running for help and allowing other Celtic player to be wide open. Best adjustment Kidd can make is just allow Celtics to beat them one-on-one or seal Brown or KP before they can even touch the ball. But you risk the chance of Tatum exploding with minimal coverage.
Great recap and video, Jonny! I think Dallas will bounce back. If I remember correctly, the Mavs shot poorly in their loss to the Timberwolves, but they def shot better in the game afterwards. So, I agree that they will improve, but also concur that Boston is an even tougher opponent to bounce back against. I am looking forward to Game 2. Happy Friday, Jonny 😊!
Dallas can still level it. Boston played crazy and hit an insane amount of 3's. Dallas had chances to stem the tide, but they couldn't hit key shots. They did manage to get it back to 8 points. If Boston don't keep up that crazy performance from 3 and Dallas' supporting players hit some shots, this could be a lot closer.
It is interesting to watch the contrast in offensive styles. Boston sometimes passes too much, while Dallas sometimes relies too heavily on their isolation plays. I think the team that finds the right balance is going to win.
if you can say that about tatum, you can definitely apply it to mavs. Kyrie, the rest of the starters and bench. Luka's 1 assist was very unusual because they cant shoot the ball in game 1. I believe this will be a close series.
Even thought it's just one game, i still believe the Mavs have a chance in game 2. Boston is pretty inconsistent, despite being great. But, as soon as one key player from Boston shows up, and either Brown or Tatum show up, they will be fine. Even if Kidd make some adjustment that actually worked on previous serious, so far Boston is the team with more experience and better coach. They will choke one game, but they cant fuck up two games in a row because the Celtics have the right pieces and coaching.
It's so hard to tell how much of a loss this game was. 20 pt blow outs feel so much more common even among great teams. If nothing else though it definitely felt like a statement game of the Celtics saying we're the ones to beat. As for what Dallas needs to do. They absolutely need to work on rotating the ball around more on the offense. You're not going to win a championship with your two best players only averaging 3 assists together and 9 total as a team.
Wilt chamberlain with a 3 three is over exaggerated but kp took smart shots that I wish he would do more in the regular season. But Luka diddnt have a good game himself 30 pts in 26 attempts isn't efficient credit to jrue and brown for having a good defense night
Boston is just to well rounded as a team and Luka is good but he can't do it all. And the reason Dallas struggled is because Boston is so good on both ends of the floor. It's time for everyone to jump off that Mavs bandwagon and give Boston their damn respect. #18🏆☘️🏀
If mavs role players don't step up and hit shots and kyrie don't go off celtics winning in 5 they so stacked jayson jalen kp white jrue ...like c'mon man its a superteam mavs need next game
This is the reality check from Tatum and co. Tatum is obviosly way better than Luka and Kai, who is clearly cursed against Celtics after that stomping.
Dallas is now facing a team that is far superior in every way defensively It is going to be very difficult for Dallas playing hero ball with doncic and Kyrie And the fact that doncic and kiri at best play mediocre defense That’s a formula for losing in five
@Theimpqala Luka never had to guard someone who play bully ball. KAT is so soft. Edward is quick but not strong. Porzingis and Brown can muscle you with their physicality. They have nowhere to hide with this Celtics 5-out offense
Yeah guys it's my bad, I was watching the game and hoping that Dallas would win, so they're cursed, you can go ahead and bet on the Celtics to win the Chip

Oh God, really, my main dude? Didn't we just go through this in the previous Mavs playoff series when they lost their lone one game and you started questioning everything and the existential plight of man's place in the greater context of the entire cosmos? Remember that? And remember what happened the very next game,? Mavs wrapped it up like a boss. Luka and The Mavs (could be a post punk Sylvania band) do things a little different. They almost gotta create obstacles for themselves to manufacture the extra added incentive and kick that propels them when they back is against the wall, to suddenly rise up like mad blazing Phoenix birds of prey that burn with the white hot intensity of a thousand suns! And don't matter the opponent, cause the end result, two things the same outcome: they're arch nemesis get touched and ain't nothing left of 'em after but a chaired burn unit Boston bird carcus. You my boy. Alight? You my boy, Blu!!
I think this video format works really well for the playoffs, so I wouldn't mind if it disappeared or was altered for the regular season from here on out
Mavs looked completely unmotivated & unprepared, as theyve looked for every game 1 these playoffs. It was literally Luka vs the world out there, Kyrie definitely got in his own head. Missing wide open 3s & making jr high turnovers. Boston was just red hot from 3.
What adjustment does Dallas have to make for Game 2?
Pray
Kyrie must show up, and the Mavs offence must be faster. I am a Laker fan also, but this year the Celtics has the best team and will be champs. Greatings from Brazil!
