Odds: 1.8

Two games are behind us, and Boston leads the series 2-0. The Mavericks have had mixed success at home in the playoffs, with 5 wins in 8 matchups. The Celtics have played 6 playoff games this season and won all of them.

Dallas Mavericks

In the second game of the finals, the Dallas Mavericks suffered a defeat against the Boston Celtics on the road (98-105). The Celtics now lead the series 2-0. The standout player for the Mavericks in the game on June 10th was Luka Don?i?, who recorded a triple-double (32 points, 11 rebounds, 11 assists). P.J. Washington added 17 points, and Kyrie Irving contributed 16.

The Mavericks (50 wins and 32 losses) finished fifth in the regular season in the Western Conference. Dallas approaches the upcoming game with a full-strength roster. As per the current playoffs tradition, Don?i? is listed as Day-To-Day in the match preview.

Boston Celtics

The Boston Celtics lost the first and fourth quarters in the game on June 10th. However, thanks to solid play in the middle of the game, they managed to secure the victory. Jrue Holiday made the most significant contribution to the win with a double-double (26 points, 11 rebounds, three assists). Jaylen Brown scored 21 points. Both Jayson Tatum and Derrick White added 18 points each.

The Celtics (64 wins and 18 losses) were the champions of the regular season. Boston, in general, traveled to Texas without significant losses. The participation of Kristaps Porzi??is, who recently recovered from a leg injury, remains questionable for the game.

Prediction

Our expert pick: For the first time in the current matchup, Dallas enters the game as the favorite. According to betting analysts, Jason Kidd's team is quite capable of narrowing the series score on their home court. Winning the championship might be unlikely, but the Mavericks definitely don't intend to go down without a fight. Don?i? and company have the potential to achieve victory today with the support of their fans.

Our prediction is a Dallas win with a -1.5 point spread, including overtime, at odds of 1.80.

Boston and Dallas have shown low scoring in their head-to-head meetings in the current playoff series. In the first two games, the 220-point mark was not surpassed. It seems likely that both teams will again focus more on defense. No one wants to take risks with the championship on the line.

Our prediction is a total of under 210.5 points, including overtime, at odds of 2.02.

Place a bet on the line of 1xBet with odds of 1.80.
