Welp, this is what I was afraid of, the Celtics coming out in game 1 and rolling like a well-oiled machine. Let's hope for better in game 2 onwards.
Anyway, the difference in strength, muscle, conditioning between the Mavs and Celtics is quite stark. Almost everyone on the Celtics' main players seems fitter and stronger than their counterparts on the Mavericks. I think the Mavericks players need to put in work during the off-season to narrow that gap.
Physically:
White > Kyrie
Jrue = DJJ > Green
Brown >>> Luka
Tatum > PJW
Porky > Lively
Gafford > Horford > Kleber
