The G3 game of the Finals came to an end, and in the end, the Celtics won the most important key game 106-99 on the road, writing the overall score to 3-0, and they are only one step away from the championship, if the Celtics can give the championship this season, then they will not only surpass the Lakers (18) in the number of championships, but also become the tenth team in NBA history to sweep the Finals.
After the game, Tatum was interviewed, at this time he talked about the experience of losing to the Warriors in the 2022 Finals, and he described the state at that time bluntly, when everyone thought that they were going to lead 3-1, but no one expected to be turned over by the Warriors against the wind, and the Warriors directly turned over three games in a row, and in the end, the crazy Warriors won the championship that year, and this experience is still fresh in the memory of the Celtics.
Tatum believes that the experience is making them grow, and he feels that experience is the best teacher, and the Celtics will learn from their mistakes and improve, so this year's Celtics will finally make it to the Finals stage again.
So far in this year's finals, the difference in the thickness of the benches between the two sides is very large! The Eastern European duo are indeed tough, but the difference in bench depth is huge.
The defensive attitude of the head coaches of the two teams is clear at a glance: Mazzulla does not let the Mavericks play the whole team, testing whether Eastern Europe can kill the Green Army; Kidd was not allowed to go head-to-head and blast alone, betting on whether the Green Army's shooters could shoot the Mavericks to death.
To put it simply, the Green Army won against Holiday and White, and the Mavericks had no real ability to help the Eastern European combination except for Doncic and Irving, so the Mavericks have really become the Mavericks so far.
Every team needs to grow, every player needs to grow, and as Tatum said, experience is the best teacher.
