Brown showing Tatum how to play the rover role. Go for the goddamn block. Muscle them out of the business. KILL THEM ALL!

Luka and Kyrie have combined for 3 assists. That's an incredible defensive effort.

Just enough of a slip to continue stoking the doubters, fool the Mavs into thinking they're fine and keep the Celtics sharp heading into game two...

Brown has 3 steals and 3 blocks through 3 quarters. He heard about the stock exchange and wanted in

This is now a thing of beauty. Luka looks gassed.

The Mavs are a f*ckballing team. This is my take after the game. They have 7 assists in the game. Keep guarding them 1 on 1. Don’t double. RIP AND TEAR UNTIL IT’S DONE.

The defense has generally been super crisp. Doncic has scored but it hasn’t been easy. Stay on his hip, don’t foul, don’t double, make him hit tough shots. They’ve gotten a bunch of steals on iso attempts and totally taken away lobs. Super impressive on that front.

Love seeing the Playoff Kyrie we know and hate. Keep it up, Joe, rent is free in his head!

Narrative before game, Celtics finally face real team. Narrative now, what it should have been, Celtics one of the more dominant teams in recent memory!

Love seeing the Playoff Kyrie we know and hate. Keep it up, Joe, rent is free in his head! I haven’t checked the box score to check everything, but Kyrie was ATROCIOUS in this game. Missed open looks, forced shots, dribbled out of his foot, got blocked like a goddamn idiot, defended absolutely no one. The Garden got this one over him.

Beautifully balanced box score. Tatum forced up some shots but his ability to get into the paint, force the help and kick out for threes or drives was beautiful. They defended Doncic and Irving perfectly. Porzingis looked sharp (dare I say 100%). Hauser shot well and he and Pritchard held up defensively. Just a great game.

Celts win big without anyone having to go off big. They played all year as a true team - and that's how they easily won this.
Three wins to go!

FMVP after one game is Jaylen Brown.

My friend, I think I’m going to cry if they win this. So many years of perfect team building, so many good moves, so much talent on this team. This feels like the ultimate reward to how good a FO can be run. This is a nerd’s dream. Jayson and Jaylen were prospects. This would be like the 18 Sox again.

Jaylen played a really well rounded game. Just tough, smart defense. Blew by Doncic and other defenders. Hit threes. Didn’t force anything. Really showed his maturity.
The crowd behind the Celtics postgame live crew is embarrassing. Don’t need **** Kyrie chants after a blowout. Just the worst stereotypical Boston sports fans.

So many people hating on Tatum saying his team carried him. The gravity he pulls out there opens the entire court for everyone. Let’s JB cook and Tatum has the maturity now to be happy to defer and not chase points. Glad we have a guy like him that simply wants to win.

You did your job during the game. Kyrie is just another player, screw him, he doesn’t play for the Celtics. This isn’t personal, this is about winning the championship.

My favorite thing from tonight might be all the big smiles from Porzingis. It must have been terribly frustrating to sit out the last month. This is farther in the playoffs than he’s ever been. He balled out and had fun out there and it was great to watch.

Pretty cool moment for Doris Burke being the first female broadcaster for a championship final. Well deserved.

Al ended with 29 minutes and The Porzingod had 20. Beautiful game plan. Boston didn’t have anyone to flat out EXPLODE, it was a solid game. Doncic balled and Kyrie underperformed, but overall it was about what you could expect from the Mavs. You could expect the Celtics to be even better. I’m feeling it!
