‘The hardest thing in this league is to close the door when you have a group that has nothing to lose,’ says coach Jason Kidd as his Mavericks go for the improbable by climbing from a 3-1 finals deficit against the Celtics

Dallas challenged the call, which stood, sending Doncic to the bench for the remainder of the contest. Doncic committed four of his fouls in the final quarter. “He was Luka. He’s been Luka. There wasn’t a different Luka out there,” Kidd said following Game 4. “He played at a high level. He was great. He’s been great. He’s one of the best players in the world. As much as we want to criticize, he’s a hell of a player.”

Still, the Mavericks have an uphill battle down 3-1 in the series. NBA teams to lose the first three games of a best-of-seven playoff series are 0-156 – 0-14 in the finals – but making history is still on the table for Dallas. If the Mavericks want to take another step toward the greatest comeback in league history, they will now have to take care of business in Boston on Monday.

“I think ultimately that’s what it comes down to for us, and there’s a lot of things that we can control and that I expect us to be much better on Monday.”
