In this particular episode Good words with good intentionsYahoo Sports Senior NBA Reporter Vincent Goodwill spoke with Yahoo Sports Senior NBA Writer Dan Devine following the conclusion of Game 2 of the 2024 NBA Finals.
The Boston Celtics pulled off another dominant win, taking a 2-0 lead over the Mavericks before the series shifted to Dallas.
Vinny and Dan talk about how Boston has shut down a previously strong Mavericks offense and explain why Kyrie Irving is off to a bad start in this series. But it’s not just about Kyrie. The only Mavericks player who’s really played well through two games is Luka Doncic.
Dunn talked about a moment of poise by the Boston Celtics — not a team normally praised for poise — and then how the Celtics forced the Mavericks’ offense to play differently than they were accustomed to.
Players talk about Jayson Tatum’s impact despite his poor shooting, then they talk about Jrue Holiday’s huge impact through two games, and then they wonder if one of them will win Finals MVP.
After the ad break, they talk about what the Mavericks can do against Dallas, the offensive limits the Celtics have yet to reach in this series, and the possible impact of Kristaps Porzingis’ leg injury.
