The Boston Celtics and Dallas Mavericks will tip-off Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Thursday night, and ahead of the series Celtics guard Jrue Holiday made it clear that he knows it won't be an easy task to slow down Dallas' backcourt tandem of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving.
Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, Holiday offered a brutally honest one-word answer when asked how the team is going to slow down the scalding hot Mavericks' duo.
"Pray," said Holiday of how he intends to try to stop Irving in a one-on-one matchup.
