GAME 2 NBA FINALS 2024: Dallas Mavericks (0-1) vs. Boston Celtics (1-0)

[Chicagojk]

The attempted dunk against two elite defenders that had no chance of success.  It was sort of like any number of DJJ drive and blocks from the previous game. When will they learn? The Mavs have a lot of bravado. Big balls. But that doesn’t work against a team like Boston. A Boston player would have passed that out for a three point shot, what the Mavs actually needed there down five.  Hopefully, the home court will allow the Mavs to play higher IQ basketball. Maybe they’ll run an actual offense. Zinger’s injury might give them a chance if they do.

I guess I don’t undestand what you would want him to do.  It was a fast break and he had a direct line to the rim.  There were defenders chasing him.  Just a fantastic play by the Boston defenders..although probably a foul.

Would you rather he don’t go strong?  Pull out and set up an offense.  I think he defiantly made the right decision.  The defense was just better.

Just my thoughts.
