With the Mavericks' 124-103 victory over the Timberwolves, the finals schedule is also officially released, G1 will be held on June 7, Beijing time, reviewing the playoff process of the two sides, the Mavericks eliminated the Clippers 4-2 in the first round, eliminated the Thunder 4-2 in the second round, and sent the Timberwolves home 4-1 in the West Finals. On the Green Army's side, they eliminated the Heat 4-1 in the first round, the Cavaliers 4-1 in the second round, and the Pacers 4-0 in the Eastern Conference finals, which is relatively much easier than the Mavericks.

The two sides have grievances against each other, such as Irving and the Green Army, Porzingis and the Mavericks, which also makes the series full of more highlights, after the end of the Western Conference G5, Irving bluntly said during the interview that he did not want to review his Green Army career, but wanted to beat them on the stage of the finals, it can be seen that Irving is very confident in defeating the Green Army, so, who can win the championship between the Mavericks and the Green Army? Let's take a look at what Barkley and O'Neill have to say.

First of all, Barkley, after the series between the Mavericks and the Timberwolves, Barkley predicted the Finals, he said: "I haven't seen anything that makes me think the Celtics are going to miss out on this year's championship, I think the Finals are going to be intense, but I prefer the Celtics to win the championship," which is easy to understand, and Barkley thinks nothing can stop the Green Army from winning the championship. Barkley then continued: "Even without Porzingis, I believe the Celtics will win the series. ”

It is clear that Barkley is optimistic about the Green Army, and he believes that whether Porzingis can play or not, it will be Celtic who will win the championship, but Barkley did not give a specific explanation. We might as well make a comparison, the depth of the Green Army's lineup on paper is definitely stronger than that of the Mavericks, if Pozin can play, it can be said that the Green Army has been armed to the extreme, each position is offensive and defensive, the Timberwolves can't defend Eastern Europe, and the Green Army has Holiday who has been selected for the best defensive team 6 times, and White has been selected for the best defensive team 2 times.

It is conceivable that in the finals, Irving will most likely be targeted, because Doncic can score and defend, it is difficult to defend, so it is better to contain Irving with all his might, Irving faces the Green Army, it should be difficult to play the Western Finals, in fact, looking back on the second round, the Thunder did a good job of defending Irving at that time, although he was out, but Irving had two single-digit scores, and the Green Army is equivalent to a strengthened version of the Thunder, as long as Irving can be locked, Doncic alone can't beat the Green Army, not to mention that the other positions of the Green Army are also stronger than the Mavericks. Of course, these are only theoretical situations, and maybe the Green Army will focus on blocking Doncic.

O'Neal gave a different point of view, the big shark said: "The Celtics don't have three or four players who can defend Luka, I prefer the Mavericks in this series, I like their style of play, I think the Mavericks will win the championship," O'Neal's meaning is easy to understand, he thinks the Green Army doesn't have many ways to defend Doncic, as for Holiday and White, O'Neal didn't mention it, to put it bluntly, O'Neal doesn't think they can guard Doncic.

To sum up, we find that Barkley and O'Neal have given inconsistent answers, and in addition to these two, there are also some predictions, such as Dream Green, who is more bullish on the Celtics, and Perkins is bullish on the Mavericks. In this round of the series, basically we can predict that unless the Green Army can open up the point difference in front, the Green Army will not be able to win against the Mavericks at a critical moment, because Tatum + Brown's hard solution ability is not as good as Doncic + Irving, but if the score difference in front is large, then it may be that the Green Army wins, and the intensity of the Finals may exceed our expectations, looking forward to the final showdown between the two teams.
