It became clear to fans that the Celtics were a much better team through this game.
The Celtics are so much better.
That even with a half like that.
They’re still winning.
You’re a Celtics fan I get it.
It’s not that deep. https://t.co/Dvx8hyqAEx

Fans joked about Kyrie not showing up to help Luka.
When Luka needed Kyrie, he turned into Julian Newman.

People didn’t want to hear narratives about Luka being a bad player when he’s clearly the best player on the court.
Luka has half of his entire teams points man and there’s gonna be dumbasses coming on here calling him a loser afterwards

Mavs fans were praying for Luka to be healthy enough to lead them to this win.
praying luka can squeeze out whatever remnants of gas that he has left for this one because we are gonna need it

Fans joked about Tatum’s lack of impact on the Celtics.
You could replace Jayson Tatum with Josh Hart and there would be no difference for Boston in this series.
— Barry (@BarryOnHere) June 10, 2024
Fans believe Tatum is getting excused for his poor performances because of how good his team is.
If Luka was playing like Tatum is playing, it’d be the only talking point.

The Celtics were led by Jrue Holiday’s 26 points and 11 rebounds, along with absolutely sensational defense on Kyrie Irving. Jaylen Brown had a solid 21 points, seven rebounds, and three steals. Jayson Tatum got a near triple-double with 18 points, nine rebounds, and 12 assists, albeit he played on terrible efficiency, shooting 27.3% from the field.
Luka Doncic did everything he could, playing through three injuries and dropping 32 points, 11 rebounds, 11 assists, and four steals in the loss. P.J. Washington had 17 points but the man the Mavs needed to produce, Kyrie Irving, put up just 16 points on 7-18 shooting.
