NBA: Kyrie Irving was right: Mavericks were just getting started

[Sneaky2021]

Kyrie Irving was not making a threat, nor was he boasting, nor was he saying anything that would be considered outlandish. It was the final week of the regular season. He and the Dallas Mavericks had just clinched a division title. Dallas will visit Boston in Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Thursday night. It’s a matchup of the teams with the NBA’s two best records since Feb. 1; Boston has gone 39-9 in that span, Dallas 36-15. Boston also had the best record in the league before Feb. 1 (37-11), while Dallas was only 14th best in that stretch (26-22).
