Game 2 of the NBA finals was way more competitive than Game 1, but it was a result of execution as opposed to adjustments.

Jrue Holiday was a phenomenal two-way player which is instrumental in the Celtics clinching the victory.

The fact he doesn't have to carry as much water on offense leaves so much more energy for everything else But credit to him because most guys don't actually reapply all that energy to other areas. Or are well rounded enough to do it. He's amped up his off ball cutting, rebounding and he's playing BY FAR the best help defense of his career

@@G-DS413 Mostly because they just slotted Dame into Jrue's role which was like trying to fit a circle into a triangle shaped hole If they had actually tried to build a team around Dame & Giannis they would have been fine. And still might be. Minnesota looked awful in year one and everyone wrote them off too. And they still lose in round 1 if they don't make the trade because Giannis was out As good as Jrue is, he's not _remotely_ close to as good as Damian Lillard as a primary ball handler and scorer. Although the fact Giannis doesn't actually want to set screens -- I feel like the people in that organization should have known that before agreeing to a trade that relied on Giannis being Draymond Green

One thing that the Mavs tried to use to counter Tatum on Gafford is a "Gortat Screen" in an empty side pick and roll. Saw one during the first quarter. Thought they were gonna do it frequently but they forgot it somehow. Luka had a clear lane and scored easily on that play.

Jrue Holiday is not just some guy who can play D. He has scored 51 points in one game. That means he's one of those guys who, when he feels it, can score with ANYONE. And he's playing on a team with guys like Tatum, Brown, and even White. All those guys need to be double-teamed at times. So if you leave a guy like Holiday even for a second, that's how he casually puts 26 on you.

Boston schemes are effective in multiple levels not just taking away corner threes and lob passes, kyrie playing like his little drew, but also making doncic do more by defending even less the offensive burden is so heavy when it comes to clutch he no longer has the legs for it. Personally i was so afraid of Dallas specially when the score board is close down the stretch but in game 2 you can see they are running him to the bones and come clutch he’s running on fumes… still i would want to be in a close rock fight with any team that has doncic and kyrie but boston has been the superior team in all aspects of the game, their strategy, execution, personnel, effort all the 50/50 ball offensive rebound that matters specially from the guard white, Pritchard and holiday have offensive rebounds… even with a game they’re supposed to lose they find a way to win, to all the haters and doubters this team is for real and can be a big problem for the competition for a few more years to come ❤🎉

Well celtics pulled away 103-89 but mavs hit some shots to cut it but the game was already pretty much over

@djbbybnz4444 Ай бұрын

That block/"controversial non-call" was definitely the defining moment of this game. Not saying the mavs would of win that game but it was that momentum. After that it shift quickly back to celtics and the added urgency of the mavs to caught up with the little amount of time ended it for them. But I really think the team really needs to shoot better especially most of them are wide open shots. And free throws are wasted. The fact that Boston played a little worse than their Game 1 and mavs playing a little better than their Game 1. And Boston still won is a statement. Maybe homecourt advantage? Well idk. You can't take any of these games in the finals for granted.

nothing about that moment was pivotal, they were literally losing. it was also going to be blocked no matter what, JB wouldve cleared it himelf and if he never went up then DW wouldve cleared it lmfao.

@djbbybnz4444 Ай бұрын

@@oneautumnleaff2119 I didn't say anything about it not being blocked. Did you even read my comment? Not pivotal? The Celtics are literally only up by 5. JT was blocked. Mavs went straight for a fastbreak. When that play of JB & DW occured it was still 50 secs remaining. It would've been a 3 point game with roughly 2 possessions. 1 for both. Did you even watch the game? "lmfao."

love you're content, but there's no interpretation with that foul. When they go to the rim cam, you can clearly see white's entire hand directly on top of gafford's.

Trying to come back to my very true, yet deleted comment, on how all anybody could talk about was how bad the Celtics were shooting from 3. Guess what…. They shot better than the Mavs/ hit more in games 1-3. In the one game that Dallas makes ONE more 3, they win by 40 😂

@user-rg1om9ef4b Ай бұрын

Don’t care that the series might be over already. If the Mavs would have gotten the foul call on Brown in game 2 could be a completely different series. If Luka didn’t foul out in game 3, could be a completely different series

I'm not a basketball expert, but just from watching these highlights and breakdowns it appears that while Luka is a tremendous offensive player, he is a liability on defense. He gets beat so many times in this video and just doesn't look like he's putting in as much effort when defending.

@briankunkel2754 Ай бұрын

So true.

@Doatello1991 Ай бұрын

@acidwizard6528 He doesn’t have the stamina to defend like that while leading his team in usage on the offensive end. The Celtics are forcing him to expend so much energy on offense.

Boston is too deep man. As good as Luka is offensively, he's such a huge liability on defensive end. I'd argue Kyrie is almost as bad defensively. Literally all of the Celtics offense starts with Brown or Tatum getting switched onto him and attacking him.

@chipchipperson3683 Ай бұрын

"Luka and Kyrie did basically everything right..." Did you watch the game? There wasn't much Kyrie did right, except for the first quarter. He's not as teflon as he would like, the atmosphere in that arena is getting to him, understandably. The home games will hopefully bring back the regular season Ky.
