The Boston Celtics’ fans were left reeling after a crushing 122-84 loss to the Dallas Mavericks in Game 4, as the defeat shattered their expectations of a clean sweep. The frustration was palpable, and it boiled over into an ugly fight between two fans in TD Garden.

The altercation occurred after three-quarters of action, when the Celtics had already seemingly accepted their loss. Boston coach Joe Mazzulla had emptied his bench, signaling that the game was all but over. Soon after that, a younger fan was spotted showing his frustration at an older fan. He continued to rain down punches on the older fan. It took the intervention of security to finally separate the two.

The fight occurred while the Mavericks, led by WCF MVP Luka Doncic, continued to play one of their best games. Dallas took a commanding 61-35 lead into halftime and never looked back, ultimately winning by a whopping 38 points. The loss marked the Celtics’ first road defeat this postseason since May 9.

While other Boston fans were able to keep their cool, the night would undoubtedly be an unforgettable one for them. The loss was a harsh reminder that the road to the NBA championship is never easy, and that even the best teams can have off nights.

For the Celtics, the focus now shifts to Game 5, where they will take the court in an effort to regain control of the series.

Celtics Fans Intimidate Mavericks Fans Before Game 4

After the Game 3 loss, Kyrie Irving had already hinted that they would come for Game 5. Nevertheless, the fans of the Boston Celtics took it lightly. Before Game 4, some Boston fans even gave a hard time to a Dallas Mavericks fan.

A pre-game video shows that a young fan was helpless in front of some toxic Boston fans. Though the fan was unguarded, he remained calm.

Meanwhile, Boston fans forgot the scenario of revenge of nature that ultimately fell heavily on them as Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving’ partnership turned the night in their favor. Doncic led all scorers with 29 points, and Irving added 21 points.

No NBA team has ever come back to win a series after trailing 0-3. Additionally, no team has ever won a series after suffering a 38+ point loss in a Finals game.

The Mavericks now will have to defeat the Celtics in next all games to clinch their second trophy.

“People Forget He’s a Rookie”- Luka Doncic Eases Expectations on Dereck Lively II Following Game 4 Performance

The Dallas Mavericks had the last opportunity to remain in the NBA Finals, and they made the most of it by snatching a 122-84 win in Game 4 over the Boston Celtics. Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving mostly looked after the offense. However, they needed a third player who would come through to make an impact. The player was none other than Mavs rookie Dereck Lively II. His outstanding performance earned him praise from the franchise’s superstar.

During the post-game press conference, Doncic’s face lit up when asked to share his thoughts about Lively. Praising his teammate for the double-double contribution, the Slovenian said, “I think people forget he’s a rookie doing this stuff. He’s been amazing the whole season, just watching him grow has been unbelievable.”

Friday night was the first time since mid-November last year that Lively attempted a shot from behind the 3-point arc. But when Doncic passed him the ball, the 7-foot-1 center could hold himself back and shot a marvelous bucket from the deep. He finished the night with 11 points and 12 rebounds by shooting 4-of-5 from the floor.

However, his on-court performance helped the Mavs maintain their supremacy in the game, and his off-court actions also benefitted the team.
