Luka Doncic was critical of his own play in the Dallas Mavericks' Game 2 loss at the Boston Celtics. Doncic had a 30-point triple double, but he also had eight turnovers and four missed free throws.

"I think my turnovers and my missed free throws cost us the game," Doncic said. "So, I've got to do way better in those two categories.

"But at the end of the day, we've got to make shots to win the game."

Kyrie Irving also continued his slow start to the series and took accountability for his play.

"He's not alone, and we are going to tell him that," Irving said of Doncic. "He's spilling into his emotions, feels like he could play better, just like me. I would take the brunt of the responsibility. The first two games weren't the best for me."
