As dominant as the Celtics have been all season and during a 15-2 playoff run entering Friday’s Game 4 of the NBA Finals, it was not really shocking that a desperate and pretty good Mavericks team wouldn’t go down without a fight.
Boston came up on the short end of a 122-84 score, their first loss to Dallas in 6 meetings this season. With no NBA team ever blowing a 3-0 series lead, the “Gentleman’s Sweep” will be in play Monday at TD Garden as the C’s try to take the final step to win banner 18.
The C’s had weathered uneven performances in Games 1 and 2, and almost squandered a 21-point fourth quarter lead in Game 3, yet made the decisive plays in crunch time to win all three.
