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.
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.
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.
