What a night for the Dallas Mavericks! 🔥
The Mavericks came out swinging on Friday, crushing the Boston Celtics 122-84 in Game 4 of the NBA Finals at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas. With this electrifying win, the Mavs avoided a sweep and kept their championship dreams alive, trailing now 3-1 in the series.
From the get-go, it was all about Dallas. The Mavs dominated every quarter, outscoring the Celtics and showing they weren't ready to pack their bags just yet. Even though the star duo of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving struggled from beyond the arc—missing 13 of their 14 three-point attempts—they more than made up for it by owning the paint. Together, they poured in 50 points, with Doncic hitting 11 of his 16 shots close to the basket, while Irving was on fire, going 9-for-11 below the free throw line.
But it wasn't just about offense. Doncic stepped up his defensive game big time! 💪 He snagged three steals and was hustling to stay in front of his opponents all night. By holding his ground on the perimeter, he gave his teammates the chance to rally and shut down the Celtics' attempts under the rim. Teamwork makes the dream work, right?
This game was a statement—a message that the Mavericks aren't going down without a fight. With momentum on their side, fans are hyped to see what happens next. Can they turn the tide and pull off an epic comeback? Stay tuned! 🏀
