BOSTON – Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Donu010diu0107 didn’t particularly care for a reporter’s desire to divide Sunday’s 105-98 loss to the Boston Celtics into different analytic categories.
Getting down to the brass tacks of why the Mavs are mired in an 0-2 hole in this best-of-seven series in the NBA Finals against the Celtics, Donu010diu0107 simply said: “Every game we lose, it’s a missed opportunity for us.”
And Sunday’s loss was a subtle missed opportunity that should give the Mavs some measure of encouragement going into Games 3, which will be Wednesday at 7:30 p.
