Who is BETTER: Dallas Mavericks or Boston Celtics? ๐ Pierre says NO QUESTION! | Numbers on the Board
the Mavericks also aren’t as good as the Celtics I disagree with that I think they are as good as the Celtics they just are going against much better teams if you so why didn’t you so so why didn’t you pick the Mavericks to go this far because you didn’t believe Celtic that you didn’t believe they were this good I thought they’re showing younes and yic I even at the start of the playoffs even at the start of the playoffs you didn’t have the Mavericks going to the NBA finals no I didn’t right always cels but I’ve seen through no I didn’t I mean yeah cuz yes every everyone everyone up here had the Celtics going to going to the final from the beginning of the year even coming into the season we all picked the Celtics go to the finals yeah then they went through the season and we still left at the end of the season like the Celtics now they are in the finals with only two losses they are the best team the only reason I picked them to be there was because Yannis was hurt and Joel and be was hurt that was the only reason I did that if those two teams were healthy and fully I would have picked one of those tees to beat the Celtics that’s fair if I don’t think I think that’s the truth for you I think there’s a lot of ifs man there so many ifs no I’m just we speaking on the past and I’m just saying that’s that that was was my like predetermined picks that I thought could really challenge that those team that team I’m gonna let you have that one because you’re a Damen Lillard fan but nothing the Bucks did is better than anything Celtics have done all year that’s literally picking them because you like them there’s nothing that they did anything this season that is better than what the Celtics did all year long even playing even in the playoffs like oh man I you just we just G have to accept the fact that he just don’t like I say even even the Knicks I would have tried to pick them to beat him but as was just like they’re taking out the top dog like that still would have even been a stretch in a super big battle for them the reason a Pacers series was so easy for me to process and not get so worked up is because as a Nick fan I looked at the Celtics like that’s a tall ass Mountain the clim mhm I’m not even going to trick myself into being like man I can’t believe we lost to the Pacers we were going to do something special no it’s the Celtics these motherf got Jason Tatum Jaylen Brown Chris STS porzingis Drew holiday and Derek white and Off the Bench they got Al Horford and then somehow they found a way to make Sam Hower effective pyton Pritchard is playing some of the most confident B I’ve seen him play this team is so well put together were weren’t were they top five offense and defense for pretty much all year that’s a recipe that we’ve all lived by since covering this like yeah you know what I mean you going to have an exceptions or anomalies here and there but they checked every [Music] [Applause] [Music] box is

This guy is a no brainer.. jb, hali, giannis, dame and embiid were all injured/hurt. The east was basically a hospital.
A lot of the media is acting like they didnโt pick Boston to win the east as soon as they got porzingis and holiday. Joel embiid has never beaten Boston in a best of 7 & Giannis is .500 head to head vs tatum in the post season I donโt even know what bro is talking about at the beginning
Depends if Porzingis plays
Who these dudes anyways lol
Celtics is better they can beat the Mavs with or without Porzingis. Luka n kyrie having a bad shooting night Mavs will lose by 30 pts.
Fatman on the left is an idiot.
Kyrieโs teammate, Luka Doncic, has a homie named Nikola Jokic, who along with teammate Jamal Murray, and the Denver Nuggets ended LeBron Jamesโ 2023-2024 NBA season in by GAME 5 when Jamal Murray dunked on LeBron James via a face-to-face, one-on-one posterization that will never be forgotten – Jamal Murray BAPTIZED LeBron James – with a nasty facial, followed by a game winner that ended LeBron Jamesโ career/LA Lakersโ career via a 4-1 Gentlemenโs SWEEP in only ROUND ONE of the 2023-2024 NBA Playoffs. Michael Jordan is the GOAT! And Kobe Bryant is better than LeBron James. ๐
He told no lies ๐๐๐ they hate us cause they ain't us Celtics in 6 ๐
Mavs beat Celtics in 4.
Are the Mavs even gonna make the finals ?? ๐ง
Btw the Celtics are still the best team in the league when fully healthy. Letโs stop the nonsense. They will show it soon.
Lots of what ifss!! Lol
When is ESPN gonna cancel this show? Giving randoโs a show is exactly why ESPN is fallingโฆ
F the NBA media. They're bias and opinionated af.
The Celtics are WAY better than the Mavs – better on offense, better on defense, deeper, and more experienced. Iโm predicting Cs in 6 but I would not be surprised to see Cs win in 5. This is of course assuming a healthy Porzingis for the entire series.
Celtics just much better then bucks and sixers and dawg said he would pick em to beat my celtics ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Pierre spitting facts
I don't know anyone but Kenny
Maybe you should talk about the Timberwolves because they could beat the mavs .
Haven't seen this show in a while but it's refreshing to hear Pierre. You can't guard the Celtics like the Mavs are guarding the Wolves and both Kyrie and Luka will have to play defense. There aren't any weaknesses defensively or offensively on the Celtics… especially when Porzingis is back in the lineup.
Are Luka & kyrie anazing? Absolutely. But boston is way better on alnost every metric & in the head to head meetings. Boston has 5 guy capable of geeting you 30. They spread teams out with FIVE 3pt shooters, play hounding defense & have been here numerous times. Boston is not losing…especially to the predictable mavs offense.
Sure, the Celtics had some lucky breaks with opposing star injuries, but they still had the best record in the league by far, so you can't say that they just look good because of those hurt players. They were most likely going to win all those series regardless. They were just able to do it in 4-5 games per series rather than 6-7.
