Please stop being ignorant. They didn't drive because they were cocky and stopped playing. It's as simple as that. | ||

Jump shots have been their offensive philosophy this whole series. People only started questioning it when it stopped working. Great game, look forward to the rest of the series. I've detached myself from this thread mostly due to my inability to deal with the overbearing stupidity of Heat fans. | ||

You really are going to argue that the best way to close out the game was for him and LeBron to take bad perimeter shots and not try to drive in and create a score? Those are 2 of the best ball on court play makers in the entire NBA. | ||

Well the answer is it's not that easy. These guys have been playing basketball all their lives and know going to the rack is the best way to score. The problem is so does the other team. Easier said than done and people should stop complaining when their favorite player can't do it. | ||

Their jump shot offense was working perfectly fine for them up until those final 7 minutes. I have never seen Lebron shoot so unconsciously. They obviously felt more confident in their ability to take the shot over driving into a 7 footer. | ||

What triggered their lead in this game was a lot of defensive mistakes by the mavs + good defensive moves -> easy transition points for them. Even when they were leading by 15 I was never impressed w/ how they set up their offense, given the weapons they have. In the last 5 minutes I actually half expected the mavs to come back because of I've seen many teams play like the heat are at the moment (including the mavs of old) and consistency is a huge issue playing that way. Miami's offense is good to great but the issue is consistency. They start 2 ways most of the time: A.) Play inside out through Chris Bosh B.) Play drive and kick, or screen for Wade and try to get open 3s As the game goes on they start playing iso near the paint to try and get an easy bucket, or free ball it. It can work, and actually does work a lot but the problem is when their 3 point shots start missing they don't stop shooting them. Even worse sometimes they go iso heavy on one side of the court but don't get the chance to always swing the ball back to the weak side. End result: The offense looks gummed up and clogged. Blame them for trying to either set too many screens close to each other and/or poor player movement. | ||

But anyways I'm not making excuses. Dallas played phenomenally the last 7 minutes and it made for a great (but heartbreaking) game. | ||

The "bad" part is the amount of 3 pointers they took but a lot of it has to do with Dallas defense and Miami's player movement in the 4th quarter. A number of possession had Lebron and Wade either doing handoffs above the 3 point line or near the corner bottled up. Dallas's defense and rebounding just ended up killing them. | ||
