The dominant conversation entering the Finals was the Best Team vs. Best Player debate, but the way the Celtics are forcing the Mavericks to work excessively hard on both ends on the floor is answering those questions.
If the Celtics are going to win, even when shooting 25.6 percent on three-pointers, we can probably get ready for Jaylen Brown to win Finals MVP this coming Friday after Game 4, or Monday after Game 5 back in Boston.
Brown has played with tremendous force throughout the first two games of the series, from that defensive play against Irving to him crossing up Doncic a little earlier for a dunk in transition to his tagteam block of PJ Washington with Derrick White to stop the Mavericks’ comeback pursuit. Brown has provided exactly what the Celtics need from him.
For a team like the Celtics, they have answered the Best Team question even if debating who the “Best Player” on this type of team is a futile exercise. Jason Kidd directly contrived to make it a plot point upon the Celtics, but they were shrewd enough to snuff it out.
