The Celtics didn’t win by having the game’s supreme player. Instead, they won by having the best team, one constructed with a certain modern-day vision.
The Mavs superstar was hunted on defense, was ineffective on switches and fouled out with more than four minutes to play. That's no championship formula as Dallas is now facing a 3-0 series deficit.
