Boston has proved that the fearsome Luca Doncic-Kyrie Irving axis is beatable. They did that perfectly in Games 1 and 2, although the Slovenian was a handful after scoring 60+ points in both matches. The Cs will now look to wrap up this series and end their long wait for the Larry O’Brien Championship Trophy with a crucial Game 5 win in Boston. They only need to win one of their road matches in Dallas for this dream to be a reality. Boston finished the campaign with a 37-4 win-loss home record, the best in both Conferences. Impressively, they have lost only twice at the TD Garden in this postseason tournament. However, the Mavs are no slouches after shocking bigwigs like OKC Thunder and the Wolves on the road this season. But Boston is just too good when playing at home.

Boston Celtics - Dallas Mavericks Key Points

  1. Boston has bagged up 63 wins in 79 contests as the moneyline favorites this season
  2. Dallas has won 11 out of their 31 contests as the moneyline underdogs this season
  3. The Mavs have won in Boston only twice in the last 10 attempts
  4. The Mavs have covered the +6.5 line in their last 10 matches

Our Boston Celtics vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction

The Celtics have mastered beating the Mavs in Boston even when Doncic is playing his best basketball. The Mavs last won here in November 2022, and they have yet to do so in their previous four attempts this year. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are in good shape and form, and the return of Kristaps Porzingis couldn't have made things worse for the Mavs. However, they must first deal with Doncic in clutch time in Games 3 and 4. Our prediction for Boston Celtics vs Dallas Mavericks: Boston to get their usual home win over the Mavs.

Prediction:

 

Boston to get their usual home win over the Mavs.

Boston Celtics vs Dallas Mavericks - Other Interesting Picks

Over 209.5 Points

Odds -108

Boston regain home-court advantage following their first loss in the NBA Finals. During their last game on the road in Dallas, the Celtics superstars Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown both had mediocre games, missing several shots and coming out of the match with lower-than-average points. We'll be expecting them to come into this game fired up to prove themselves in front of their home crowd. Furthermore, Porzingis, Holiday, and White will all be available to play in this potential final game of the series -players who have shined during the playoffs in particular. We're expecting a high-scoring Celtics side. 

For their part, Dallas will have their work cut out for them in, needing to better a high-flying Celtic team in order to keep their hopes alive. Despite a so-so performance in their last game, we are expecting the famous Iriving-Doncic combo to perform at their best. Tonight's game promises to be an even duel with each team scoring between 100 and 110 points. Our prediction for Celtics vs Mavs: Over 209.5 points!
