Nearing The End…
Manage episode 422120273 series 3165868
The Finals are upon us! The Mavs are heading in hot, while Boston struggled as much as any team can in a sweep. How will the Mavs' offense stack up against Boston's perimeter defense? Dallas lives off corner 3s, and Boston is top 3 in taking those away. What gives first?
We'll also discuss Boston's sweep of the drain series and lost by 28 in March, with Gafford coming off the bench then. How big a difference will that make now? Teams that give Boston trouble have unpredictable offenses with several scoring options. Can the Mavs rely on just high screen and roll with Luka and Kyrie?
Plus, how does KP coming back (if healthy) change the series dynamics? What impact will getting Dwight Powell back have for Dallas? And let's talk about Dallas' elite defense. Did Minnesota's lack of shot creation contribute to the Mavs looking that good, or was it all about Dallas' scheme and execution?
