2024 Playoffs- 4th Round: Boston Celtics - Dallas Mavericks

[KillerLeft]

The difference last series is that Minny had another 7 footer guarding the dunker spot. This time it’s 6’4 white or holiday or 6’7 Brown or Tatum.

That's a fair point, and even if the pass isn't easier (enough) there would be an advantage for Dallas on the offensive glass in the event of a miss...

...but I, personally, would opt for the side of the easiest possible read and pass. I think turnovers, which have haunted Dallas through this postseason, will be something they finally won't be able to overcome against this opponent, and both PJ and DJJ driving into the paint have been an excellent way of generating turnovers, as has Gafford touching the ball on the short roll with literally any offensive alignment.
