Celtics Dominate Early In Series

NBA Finals: Celtics Surge Ahead with Porzingis' Return

Celtics Dominate Early in Series

The Boston Celtics have taken an early lead in the NBA Finals, thanks in large part to the return of Kristaps Porzingis. The Latvian big man has been a force on both ends of the court, averaging 25 points and 10 rebounds in the first two games of the series. With Porzingis back in the lineup, the Celtics have a new level of firepower and athleticism that has been too much for the Dallas Mavericks to handle thus far.

Brown and Irving Lead Mavericks' Charge

Despite the Celtics' early dominance, the Mavericks have not gone down without a fight. Jaylen Brown and Kyrie Irving have been the driving forces behind the Mavericks' offense, averaging 20 and 18 points per game, respectively. However, the Mavericks have struggled to contain the Celtics' high-powered attack, and they will need to find a way to slow down Porzingis and company if they want to even the series.
