One more win, and they will secure the Championship ring and the Larry O’Brien Trophy for the first time in 16 years! Jaylen Brown, who has been instrumental in the Cs’ success till now, once again came out on top by dropping a whopping 30 points.

During the post-game interview, JB spoke about sharing his excitement about securing the “big-time win” with Jayson Tatum. At the same time, he touched base on how he and his roster dealt with Kyrie Irving after Luka Doncic, was fouled out. “Kyrie was great tonight, that was a vintage Kyrie performance, (but) it just wasn’t enough,” said Brown. The Mavs star led the scoring effort with his 35 points, 3 rebounds, and 2 assists. This was a complete contrast from the last two games.

He went 13-28 with his field goals and 4-6 with his three-pointers.

Kyrie Irving is ready to ‘go home’ and prep for Game 4!

During the post-game press conference, Kyrie Irving spoke about the team loss that put his scoring prowess on the backseat. He stated that he is more than ready to go back home, a phrase not said with the intention of giving up, but with the intention of refusing to back down. “Just go home, get them all ready.”

“Get the bazooka, with the 50-cal ready. Get everything ready cause, you know, when we come into Game 4, we know that we got to shoot our gun, we got to shoot our shots and we got to do it with an aggression,” he concluded. The Mavericks star highlighted that the Celtics are a tough opponent since they shoot a “lot of tough threes” and that they rely on these shots to play comfortably in the later part of the game. This is something that he and his roster need to prevent in the upcoming do-or-die matchup.

“I’m just going home, dusting off the tools and getting ready for, you know, a tough Game 4.” Importantly, Luka Doncic, PJ Washington, and Dereck Lively also had a good game. They lost their foothold after Luka was fouled out in the crucial final minutes. It is important to note that no team has ever made a successful comeback from 3-0 down in a playoff series. It will really take a record-breaking effort from the Mavs to make something special happen. Can they do it?
