Dallas checks itself out
Boston is one win away
Celtics lead Finals, 3-0
Great offense beats great defense in the NBA, most of Dallas actually tried great defense in Game 3, didn’t work, now we don’t know if a Game 5 is even possible. Elite shot-creation and exquisite shot-making from Boston down the stretch of its win.
Dallas excelled defensively late in the season, every Achilles has its heels but the Mavericks showcased fewer and fewer angles for arching arrows as February turned to spring. Yet Boston made the Mavs, the appropriate representative from the NBA’s always-great Western conference, look as feeble as that giant foot ABC used to explain Kristaps Porziņģis’ injury.
