Mavericks’ Dereck Lively not impressed with TD Garden crowd in NBA Finals

The Celtics took care of business on their home court in Games 1 and 2 of the NBA Finals in front of a raucous crowd at TD Garden.

But even with the Celtics leaving Causeway Street with a 2-0 series edge, the Mavericks don’t seem overly impressed with the decibel level in Boston’s home arena.

Just a few days after former Celtics guard Kyrie Irving said he “thought it was going to be a little louder” in Game 1, Mavericks center Dereck Lively dismissed the notion that Boston’s barn was rocking in the first two games of this series.
