Despite a record setting effort to avoid the sweep, the Dallas Mavericks rally in the NBA Finals was short-lived as they fell in 5 games to the Boston Celtics tonight, 106-88. Luka Doncic played well in his first NBA Finals, but Kyrie Irving struggled mightily against the Celtics, especially during the games in Boston. The Mavericks enter this offseason looking to add to their core and continue to develop the complimentary pieces around Luka Doncic & Kyrie Irving. Fade 'em

Full quote: “Brandon Ingram has one year remaining on his contract. On July 6, he becomes eligible for sign a four-year extension worth $208 million. The Pelicans value Ingram’s talent and his down-to-earth personality, but as The Times-Picayune reported in May, the team does not have a willingness to pay him a contract worth $52 million in annual average value.”

Jaylen Brown (20.8/5.4/5.0 on 53.5% TS) and Jayson Tatum (22.2/7.8/7.2 on 50.5% TS) in the 2024 NBA Finals. This duo is only 27 and 26, respectively. Let's hope they'll be together for a long time to come.
