NBA Finals Game 4 Update: Celtics One Win Away from Title
Mavericks Face Elimination After Game 4 Loss
The Boston Celtics took a commanding 3-1 lead in the NBA Finals on Friday night, with Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown leading the charge in a 122-84 victory over the Dallas Mavericks. The win puts the Celtics just one win away from their 18th NBA championship.
Dynamic Duo Dominates
Tatum and Brown combined for 61 points in Game 4, showcasing the dominance of Boston's young duo. Tatum finished with a game-high 32 points, while Brown added 29. The pair has averaged a combined 52 points per game in the series, proving to be an unstoppable force for the Mavericks.
Mavericks on the Brink
The Mavericks, led by Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, have struggled to find consistency in the series. Doncic, who has been battling an ankle injury, has been held to an average of 23 points per game, well below his regular season output. Irving, meanwhile, has shown flashes of brilliance but has also had his struggles, shooting just 38% from the field.
Historic Deficit
The Mavericks now face an insurmountable task in Game 5. No team in NBA history has ever come back to win a playoff series after losing the first three games. The Celtics, on the other hand, are seeking to close out the series as early as Sunday night in Game 5.
