Dominating the Celtics against the Mavericks, they embraced the title

One step away from winning the title were the Celtics.

With victory 106-99 the Boston team passed the home of the Mavericks and found themselves in arms with their 18th championship and the first since 2008. After making it 3-0 in the NBA finals series and reaching 10 consecutive victories in the playoffs. In fact, it became the 9th team, which manages to do something like this.

In an excellent evening, the guests were presented Brown and Tatumwith the former scoring 30 points (10/13 2-pointers, 2/9 3-pointers, 4/5 shots, 8 rebounds, 8 assists) and the latter 31 (7/13 2-pointers, 4/13 3-pointers, 5/5 shots, 6 rebounds, 5 assists).

On the contrary, below expectations for the hosts, who had Porzingis out with an injury, was Doncic. Since he can score 27 points, but he was 10/20 from 2-pointers, 1/7 from 3-pointers (plus 4/4 shots, 6 rebounds, 6 assists), while at 4:12 he was ejected with six fouls, with Jason Kidd not getting justice for choosing to foul him left on the floor at a critical point, although he was loaded with fouls. THE Irving found his hand from the perimeter for the first time in the series, having 35 points, on 9/22 2-pointers, but also 4/6 3-pointers, 5/5 shots, 3 rebounds plus 2 assists.

The home side started the match strong, but then the Celtics dominated and were in control. They found themselves leading by 21 points (91-70), but the Mavericks made a tremendous comeback with a 22-2 run. However, White’s three-pointer for 92-98 and Tatum’s nailing kept the visitors standing, who “locked in” the victory with Brown (98-102).
