The Boston Celtics look to protect home court tonight and take a 2-0 lead in the NBA Finals, while the Dallas Mavericks try to bounce back from a flat Game 1 and steal a win on the road.
The Celtics were dominant in the first game of the series, setting a new single-game Finals record with seven players making multiple 3-pointers. They were clearly sparked by the return of Kristaps Porzingis, who came off the bench to score almost a point-per-minute and make several highlight-worthy blocked shots.
Can they keep that momentum in Game 2, or can the Mavericks instead show the opener was more a case of a bad game than a bad matchup?
