Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd is keeping his cool after a tough Game 1 loss in the NBA Finals, telling reporters: \"There's no panic with this group.\" The team fell 107-89 to the Boston Celtics in Thursday's opener but remains undaunted ahead of Sunday’s Game 2 clash at TD Garden. 🌆
Kidd channeled his inner Zen master during Saturday’s press conference, emphasizing resilience: \"We’ve lost Game 1 a lot of times, and we’ve responded. We believe we can do it again.\" The Mavs have already proven their comeback chops this postseason, rallying after losing openers against the LA Clippers and Oklahoma City Thunder earlier in the playoffs.
Here’s the plot twist 📈: No NBA team has ever trailed by 25+ points in three consecutive series openers like Dallas has this postseason… and still advanced. But with superstar Luka Dončić and clutch performer Kyrie Irving leading the charge, the Mavs are betting on one of sports’ greatest tropes – the underdog story. 🐺
Will Boston’s home-court advantage hold strong, or will Dallas level up their game? Tune in Sunday at 8 PM ET for what’s shaping up to be a must-watch showdown. 🍿
