Only five instances.
First finals appearance for the best player, down 2-0.
Okay, 2024, not long ago.
The Celtics defeated Luka's Dallas Mavericks.
Took care of business in five games.
So Luka's Mavs lost the first two games on the road to the Celtics.
In Dallas, the Celtics were up big in game three.
I don't know if you remember this.
Then blew a 21-point lead in like 11 minutes.
It was suddenly like a game, but the Celtics came through.
Tatum scored 31, Brown had 30.
They held off the furious rally.
That was the game where Luka picked up his sixth foul with like four minutes to go.
That was a bit of a game changer in that one that they needed to win.
The Mavericks responded with one of the largest blowout victories in NBA finals history in game four.
Completely forgotten because they go on to lose, but they beat them 122 to 84.
Oh yeah.
The old gentleman sweep we had.
Luka was awesome in that game.
He had 25 of his 29 in the first half, but the Celtics won in game five decisively.
