THE 2024 NBA FINALS: Dallas Mavericks vs Boston Celtics

[Melonhead]

TLDR; Mavs are the greatest and the schedule is at the bottom of the post

I mean what else is there to say? We're looking at the one of the biggest single season turnarounds in NBA history. We've collectively said get Luka some defensive size around him and a rim runner and he will go to work. Well, we got that and more. An unforgettable special run. But its not over yet, time to finish the job!

I'm going to link thespiralgoeson post because its absolutely worth a read, and we have a week until game 1 so what else are you doing anyway:

As of now, we have thespiralgoeson and MFFL attending a finals game so send them good vibes and help get the team a win!

Couple of stats that I liked:

Dereck Lively first guy to finish a series shooting 100% fg (16/16)

Luka first player to lead the entire playoffs (up to the finals) in points, rebounds, and assists

Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic are the first starting backcourt to each have at least 30 points in the same game 4 times in a postseason in the last 50 years

Second 5 seed to ever make the finals (Bubble Heat in 2020)

Only the Lakers and Rockets have ever beat three 50 win teams in a postseason. Mavs have beat 3 of the top 4 seeds to reach the finals.
