Draymond Green, a standout player for the Warriors, is foreseeing a surprise victory in the 2024 NBA Finals by choosing the Dallas Mavericks over the Boston Celtics. Green believes that the Celtics will be outmatched by Luka Dončić and Kyrie Irving’s impressive offensive skills when they play together.

Series Breakdown on “The Draymond Green Show”

During his podcast, “The Draymond Green Show,” Green predicted that Boston would win Game 1 in NBA Finals due to the Celtics’ strong presence and length on the perimeter. Nonetheless, he is confident that the Mavericks will make the needed changes and emerge victorious in three straight games to go up 3-1 in the series.

Green predicted Boston will win Game 5 with Dallas leading 3-1, and he also predicted Dallas will win Game 6.

Key Factors: Dončić and Irving

Green highlighted the importance of Dončić and Irving’s shotmaking skills as key factors in the series. He predicts that the Celtics will struggle to handle their strong offense, despite being the favorites to win the championship. Green also mentioned that he anticipates Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown will not have difficulties like they did in the finals against the Warriors two years ago.

“I believe it’s Luka’s moment, and I believe Kyrie is hungry for another NBA championship,” Green expressed. “That experience will be important.” I believe JB and JT are playing well. In the end, I believe Dallas will succeed in completing the task. They are enjoying a fantastic streak, with all the necessary components in place. I predict Dallas will win in six games. I’m going along with it.

A History of Upsets

Green’s previous predictions should be taken into account when considering his noteworthy forecast. He mistakenly chose the Kings over the Pelicans in the play-in game and announced the end of the Nuggets-Timberwolves series when Nikola Jokic’s team went up 3-2 in the Western Conference semifinals. Even with these mistakes, Green’s belief in the Mavericks remains unwavering.

Mavericks’ Playoff Journey

In 2024, the Mavericks were the fifth seed in the playoffs and beat three teams with 50 wins each to make it to the NBA Finals. If Green’s forecast is correct, Dallas will become the second team with a low seed. To win the championship after the 1994–1995 Houston Rockets. Who was the sixth seed and won the title again.

A Magical Run?

Dallas supporters are optimistic that Green’s belief in their team will be proven true. While Boston fans maintain their confidence in the Celtics. The series guarantees exciting drama and fierce competition as both teams compete for the highly sought-after NBA championship. During the games, everyone will be watching Dončić and Irving closely to see if they can guide the Mavericks to a momentous win.
