Boston Celtics Aim to Close Out NBA Finals Against Dallas Mavericks

Celtics Hold a Commanding 3-0 Lead

Game 4 Set for Primetime Showdown at American Airlines Center

The Boston Celtics are poised to claim their 18th NBA championship as they face the Dallas Mavericks in Game 4 of the NBA Finals on Friday night. The Celtics have a commanding 3-0 lead in the best-of-seven series and are looking to complete the sweep on the road. The Mavericks, however, are determined to extend the series and force a Game 5 back in Boston. Dallas played much better in Game 3, but the Celtics were still able to secure the win. With their backs against the wall, the Mavericks need to come out with a sense of urgency in Game 4. They will need to play with more physicality and intensity and make the Celtics work for every basket. The Celtics, on the other hand, will be looking to close out the series and avoid a potential Game 5 letdown. They will need to maintain their focus and intensity and not allow the Mavericks to gain any momentum. Game 4 is set to tip off at 9:00 PM EST at American Airlines Center in Dallas.
