The Boston Celtics took a 2-0 lead in the NBA Finals with a 105-98 victory over the Dallas Mavericks.  This was a bad loss for the Mavericks as the night’s when the Celtics can’t throw the ball in the ocean are the night’s you are supposed to beat them.  Failing to do so, even in Boston, can really come back to hurt Dallas’ chances.  With that said, it’s great that the Celtics are up 2-0 but this series is far from over.  The old saying goes “a series doesn’t stop until the home team loses”.  So far, all the Celtics have done is hold serve.  I like their chances to finish this off, but it’s anything but a foregone conclusion.
