And then there were two — the Boston Celtics and Dallas Mavericks.
The two teams will duke it out in the 2024 NBA Finals for a chance to lift the Larry O’Brien Championship Trophy. Will Dallas get their second title, or will Boston raised it’s 18th championship banner?
Jesus Acevedo Jr. and the Zodiac GM get you ready for the matchup but first the duo shared their favorite NBA Finals memory (00:53), then share what they think of Dallas and Boston making the NBA Finals (3:15).
Then, how a midseason trade changed the Mavericks roster for the better that led them on their Finals run (5:12).
Boston is in the finals for the second time in three years, a place many expected them to be at the beginning of the season (17:28).
And finally, the guys make their Finals predictions (28:35).
