NBA Tips, Thursday June 13 – NBA Finals

DALLAS MAVERICKS VS BOSTON CELTICS
Boston Celtics (+1.5) $1.94

The NBA Finals heads to Dallas, where Boston will be looking to go 3-0.

The Celtics managed to claim Game 2 despite shooting 25.6% from deep, and 45.2% from the field!

Jayson Tatum was the chief offender, going 6/22 from the field, 1/7 from three.

Fortunately for the home side, Dallas couldn’t get their offence going either, going 6/26 from deep, 2/17 without Luka.

Kyrie Irving was the biggest disappointment for the Mavs, Luka’s 2IC managed to put up 16pts from 18 shots, leaving a visibly injured Doncic with far too much to do.

Across the first two games, it is clearly evident that Boston is a horrible matchup for Dallas, they have multiple players to throw at Luka, and they are able to drive and kick with ease on the offensive end.

The Celtics have been good on the road all season, and I have them coving here as slight underdogs.
