If you think MJ didn't flop then your crazy. Dude was the master of mind games and getting under the opponents skin and thats exactly what happens when you flop. Its more prevalent in the NBA today, but it has been around for a long time.
Flopping != mind games oO MJ took a beating and he never milked it, I don't know where you're getting that.

I dunno man he milked it pretty hard against the pistons.

Did I say flopping = mind games? No... Its just one form of mind games. Just because you flop doesn't mean you don't take a beating. He did it, every smart player does. It sets you and your team up into a better situation.

Can you guys stop having this stupid conversation? We get it. You hate floppers. They insult the game and harm its sacred integrity that was built by men of competitive virtue.

Miami will probably sweep trough the finals, they have faced so hard defences (Boston and Chicago) while Dallas has only played a broken Lakers-team and a young and an inexperienced Oklahoma-team.
The Heat in four.

Fwiw the series price of Miami -197 with Dallas +177 presents some value for Dallas.
5 hours ago this guy is likely the most successful nba sports bettor around. 100% trolling people trying to keep the line down (fwiw line opened at -192/+173 in heat's favour)

I don't believe how many stupid people are posting here, that mostly have not seen any reg. season game and only heart about the "big 2+sidekicks in miami"
Dallas is the better team, FACT! As in the reg. season dallas will force wade and lebroom to take jumpshots, what makes them inefficient and dallas has so much weapons. they can kill miami with 3pt shooting (terry/peja/jkidd/dirk), inside scoring (barea/marion/dirk/chandler/bigwood) and mavs play solid defense.
Miami is dead, if wade/lebroom don't score 30ppg/each, what won't happen.

Dallas will win as long as they don't turn the ball over too much.
Their half court defense can deal with Miami's weak offense.
Stopping the Mavs, on the other hand, is much harder than stopping the D-rose one man show. You have to deal with their great execution on the pick and roll, and isolations on Dirk which require a lot of defensive help and opens up their other great shooters.
The only thing the Mavs need to do is to not give them free points on the fast break. It'll probably be some low scoring games (baring a blow out by the Mavs), so letting James have an easy dunk can be huge.

Mavs defense won't have problems with the Heat? Whaaaaa?

Great game like last night. I really though the Bulls had it, but wholey shit, love or hate LBJ he's so f'ing good...

I can't believe people are even slightly mentioning the regular season anymore. Chicago swept Miami. Boston won the first three games and only lost to them in the very last game when the heat were absolutely hot. Dallas got both their wins very early in the season and to purport that this is even close to the same team is dumb.
That said, Dallas is better than they've looked since the 2006-2007 regular season, so I expect them to make a game of it. These teams have been diabolically good at home so I expect the Heat to clinch it in 7.

So if you're Chicago's GM, do you make any moves to put the team over the line next year (assuming no lock out)?

Send Boozer away, damn, he's not fiting into this team. Jesus, I was psyched when I heard they were after Courtney Lee, I love him since the 2009. finals, he would fit so well. Fast, solid D (he guarded Bryant in '09), D-Rose lite.

Your saying Dallas defense won't have any problems against Heat offense? seriously?
And for the people talking about the normal season, Heat was 1-3 to Boston and lost all to chicago, and what happened in the post season?
I do agree Dallas won´t be easy but I´m expecting dallas to have much more problems than some people here are speculating.

Everyone hates on the Heat to much. Youre all jealous that my sweet team can win when it needs to!

This thread is a wreck now. I'll have to analyze basketball in solitude now.
