Dallas Mavericks vs Boston Celtics Prediction & Picks - NBA

 by Stephen Abiola | in NBA Picks

Dallas Mavericks and Boston Celtics will hit the court on Thursday night in what promises to be a thrilling NBA Finals. Both sides know nothing short of a win will satisfy their fanbase, with Boston looking to end their 14-year NBA trophy drought. The Cs are the in-form team here after sweeping the Pacers 4-0 in the Eastern Conference Finals. They are arguably the best NBA side this season after ending the league with an incredible 64-18 win-loss record. However, Luca Doncic and the Mavericks will have their say on who’s the best this season. They battled through a tough Western Conference schedule without a home-court advantage. The Mavericks convincingly defeated the Timberwolves 4-1 in the Conference Finals to book a date with the Celtics. Dallas will hope that Kristaps Porzingis will be rusty to start for Boston, although Derrick White has been excellent in his absence. The Celtics are the 7-point favorites in this matchup.

Our Dallas Mavericks vs Boston Celtics Prediction

With the Larry O’Brien Trophy on the line, both teams will likely bring their A-game. The Mavs will know that the Celtics have twice failed to capitalize on their home-court advantage against Miami and Cleveland. However, they showed how ruthless they can be against the Pacers. Porzingis will likely return against Dallas, giving Boston enough firepower to overcome the threat of Doncic and Irving. Our prediction for Boston Celtics vs Dallas Mavericks: Boston to win Game 1 of this matchup.
