After defeating the Timberwolves 124-103, the Mavericks successfully advanced to the Finals. And in the final battle of the NBA this season, the Celtics, who are first in the East, will face the Mavericks, who are fifth in the West.
After the Mavericks eliminated the Timberwolves, they sparked social media posts on the Warriors' official media. The article mentions a 22-year playoff journey in which Curry led the team to a victory over the Mavericks in the Western Conference Finals and a victory over the Celtics in the Finals. That year, the Mavericks met the Warriors in the Western Conference Finals, but Doncic struggled to support it and finally lost with a score of 1:4. The Celtics, on the other hand, led 2-1 in the Finals, but were eventually overturned by the Warriors and lost 2-4.
At that time, Curry also defeated the four players of the All-Season Team with an amazing performance, which can be described as strong when it is strong. The Warriors were still in peak form in the playoffs that year, and Klay and Wiggins were also very good. In addition to this, the substitutes also have an important contribution.
Compared to the present, the Mavericks of the past cannot compare to the strength of this team now. At that time, the Mavericks only had one standout player, Doncic, and now the team is strong. In addition to Irving, players such as P.J. Washington and Lively Lively, Gafford and Jones can also contribute to the team. It's worth looking forward to what kind of sparks the Mavericks and Celtics will show in the Finals this year.
