Luka Doncic's first final has not gone well so far. And the Slovenian prodigy himself has minimal questions. Doncic finished the first game of the series with a double-double - 30 points and 10 rebounds. In the second game, the Slovenian had a triple-double - 32 points, 11 rebounds, 11 assists.
Other Dallas players are not helping their leader much. In particular, Kyrie Irving's poor performance stands out. Having made only 6 of 19 shots in the first game, the NBA champion in Cleveland was unable to significantly improve this result in the second game - 7 of 18.
Boston Celtics
The Celtics confirm their status as the favourite for the entire playoffs. With 12 wins and only 2 losses in the Eastern Conference, Joe Mazzulla's team has no problems so far in the Finals. Boston's defence is very good, and in the two opening games against Dallas they didn't concede a hundred points - 107:89 and 105:98. On offence, the Celtics are still capable of adding a lot.
It's hard to single out anyone on Boston's roster. The Celtics are showing tremendous teamwork. In the first game, Jaylen Brown scored 22 points and Kristaps Porzingis added 20 points, but in the second game Jrue Holiday was the best scorer with 26 points.
Expert Betting Tips
Even though the series has moved to Texas, Dallas' prospects are frankly almost beyond belief. For Luka Doncic, getting to the NBA Finals is a big success, but the Slovenian's titles are still ahead of him. Boston, on the other hand, has long been a championship contender, regularly reaching the late stages of the playoffs for almost a decade, and will likely close out the Mavericks fairly quickly. We're also betting on the Celtics in Game 3 of the series.
