The Dallas Mavericks are gearing up for their first NBA Finals appearance in over a decade, and the excitement in the city is palpable. As they prepare to face off against the Boston Celtics in Game 1, fans were treated to a hype video featuring narration from NFL superstar Patrick Mahomes.
In the video, Mahomes praised the Mavericks for their hard work and determination, stating, “Nobody expected the Mavs…Nobody wanted the Mavs. But nobody can deny that you’ve earned it.” The response from fans was overwhelmingly positive, with many taking to social media to show their support for the team.
While the Mavericks are considered underdogs against the Celtics, fans are rallying behind them, knowing that they will have to fight hard to secure a championship. Some questioned the choice of Mahomes as the narrator, suggesting that a player from the Dallas Cowboys would have been a more fitting choice.
Interestingly, the Celtics also released a hype video narrated by NFL legend Tom Brady, sparking comparisons between the two star quarterbacks. Overall, the video has fired up Mavericks fans and put them in a positive mindset heading into Game 1. Now the question remains: will it have the same effect on the team?
