NBA Finals: Celtics Crush Mavericks in Game 1 Blowout
Boston Dominates Dallas, Takes 1-0 Lead
The Boston Celtics sent a resounding message to the Dallas Mavericks in Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Thursday night, blowing out their opponents 107-89. The Celtics led the charge from the opening tip, controlling the tempo and pace of the game throughout the contest.
Celtics Dominate First Half
Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum led the Celtics' charge in the first half, combining for 36 points and setting the tone for the game. Dallas star Luka Dončić struggled to find his rhythm, shooting just 4-of-12 from the field and committing three turnovers.
Mavs Fall Short
Despite Dončić's 30 points and 10 rebounds, the Mavericks were outmatched by the Celtics' superior teamwork and execution. Dorian Finney-Smith added 18 points for Dallas, but it was not enough to offset Boston's balanced attack.
Series Advantage
