Luka Dealt to Lakers: Nico Harrison is a Basketball Terrorist

[mvossman]

I'm not trying to rebut your post, just saying that I think Luka's knee injury was something he dealt with the entire playoffs. 

My own thought about the Boston series was that the Mavs as a team weren't ready for Boston. We were the up-and-coming team that ran into a team that had already paid their dues and were flat out better.

I agree with this but also add that the Mavs were worn down a bit going through three tough series while Boston had a cakewalk.
