Jason Kidd, the Dallas Mavericks’ head coach, spoke at a press conference after his team’s loss to the Boston Celtics in Game 2 of the NBA Finals series.
Although the Mavericks looked better than in Game 1, the Boston Celtics once again, almost routinely, secured a win on their home court. Despite both Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving taking responsibility after this loss, the coach of the Texas team disagreed with them.
“He had great looks. They just didn’t go down. That’s just the game of basketball. Sometimes you make them. Sometimes you don’t. You continue to keep playing,” Jason Kidd said of Irving, and then commented on Doncic’s performance.
“He was great. No matter what he says, that’s just who he is. He’s a leader. It’s not all on him. It’s a team. We win as a team, and we lose as a team. So, he put us in a position. He was really good tonight. Unfortunately, we just couldn’t get over the hump. I thought our defense was really, really good. We’ve just got to take care of the ball.”
