The Dallas Mavericks were totally outmatched in the first three games of the NBA Finals, with Jaylen Brown and the Boston Celtics coming out firing on all cylinders after losing only two games throughout the first three rounds of the NBA playoffs.
Fortunately for Dallas, Luka Doncic and company came to play in Game 4 in order to avoid elimination, as they crushed the Celtics by 38 at American Airlines Center, forcing the Finals back to Boston for Game 5 at TD Garden.
Although the odds are against them moving forward, with no team in league history ever coming back from a 0-3 deficit, Doncic is keeping his head high while enjoying the moment ahead of Game 5 on Monday night in Boston.

Doncic hits some incredible eye-popping shots during games but he also hit some ridiculous shots while messing around on the practice floor, like he did here from the bench as if it was nothing via the Mavericks’ Twitter account.
In Game 4, Doncic, as usual, made it look easy as he finished with 29 points in 33 minutes on the floor, helping the Mavericks get their first win of the Finals and stay alive for at least one more game.
If the Mavericks can come out on top in Game 5 on Monday night, the series will shift back to Dallas for Game 6, making things difficult and awkward for the Celtics as two wins will separate Doncic and company from making NBA history.
It’ll be interesting to see if the Mavericks can repeat their performance in Game 5 and how the Celtics respond after getting blown out in Game 4.
