The Celtics are back in the Finals for the second time in three years, seeking to avenge their 2022 loss with a league-best 64-18 regular season record.
The Mavericks are in the Finals for the first time since 2011 and faced a more arduous path with key players like Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving leading the charge.
Both teams had a longer break than usual before the Finals; Celtics last played 10 days ago, while the Mavericks last played last Thursday.
TD Garden for Game 1 was filled with green shirts and strategically placed white shirts to create '617' and 'BOS' on different sides of the court.
