NBA Finals: Miami Heat vs. Dallas Mavericks

[King Taharqa]

Triple double for the King tonight. Hate will still come though. Heat didnt defend well enough to win tonight despite putting up some nice offense in this game. Heat are now in an elimination situation on their home floor. They're gonna have to lay it all out and continue to keep plugging. I still like their chances to win this one and invite all haters to tune into the King & Wade Show on Sunday night. Should be a great 1.

No way Lebron can defend this, he was absolutely awful in the 4th.

At least he improved from last night. That's all you can ask for ha.

He scored 2 points in garbage time, so that doesn't really count. That makes like <10 points in the past FOUR fourth quarters :eek:

I've been defending LBJ all year.... it stops here. D - Wade played and showed heart down near the end... No one was going to keep him from attacking... Not seeing it from LBJ, I don;t know why????? He better have the best game 6 and 7 in finals history....

When you drove you got good shots for your teammates... then you stopped... why?? Kidd can't hold you!!! Your LBJ, come on man!!! Dirk and Wade gets much respect.

I never realized just how great Dirk Nowitzki is. I always knew he was good(the Bobcats still are trying to get a win against him and his Mavs) but this guy is being chased around the court like Reggie Miller and he's 7 feet tall. That spin move he made to avoid the double team was sick. Or how about the rainbow 3? He decides to shoot a three but it's well defended. In that split second between when he realizes his opponent can block the shot and before the release, he calculates a new angle and it's nothing but the bottom of the net.

The guy is amazing.

lol

thoughts on him chucking some HORRIBLE jump shots when the game was still in reach? he could have easily attacked the rim and made it a tie game, but he lebricked a bad 3, Dallas got the rebound, and they hit a 3 that put the game away.

[TruCatzFan]

Well... They have their backs to the wall... If they're gonna win it they'll have to do it in dramatic fashion. Hopefully D Wade can rest and recuperate by Sunday.

There's no way the Mavs bench can shoot lights out like that one more time... Is there??

I will not be able to believe it if the Heat lose in Miami.

[King Taharqa]

There are points in the game where King did attack the rim and got hacked and no fouls were called. I think when that keeps happening, he starts settling for his J. Wade on the other hand is a master of attracting foul calls and got to the line a lot more tonight. I think LeBron had 1 FT trip tonight. Hopefully in Miami the calls will shift and Miami's stars will enjoy more 4th quarter trips to the stripe. Dallas is also doing a good job of doubling King and forcing him to make passes in the half court.

a lot of fouls went uncalled in this game in favor of the Mavs.. A LOT.

[Kevin Greene]

You know thank goodness DWade got hurt tonight.

For the first 7 years years of Le Brick's career he had the I can't do it all alone excuse.

Now it's Dwade's injury. I thought Spoeltsra would be the sacrificial lamb after a Heat Finals failure this year, maybe not.

Of course Lebron could dominate the next 2 games.

I kid, I kid.

Glad you see this. I wont gripe about it, only asks it goes the other way in Miami. I'd love to see Haslem and Joel Anthony get some loose ball rebound FT trips too.

[Hawk]

i got a fever and the only prescription is more Dirk

nice of the queen to disappear in the fourth again...lol

[Hawk]

waaaaaaaa...there were plenty of calls both ways, like a missed offensive on wade when he got hurt. quit your bitchin and practice what you preach, take a loss with some class

[HeatCheck]

I think LBJ tried to prove something to people and that's why he resorted to his shot. A lot of times he had the opportunity to drive but didn't. I don't think it was because he wasn't getting calls.
