Oh man just saw the game: so fucking good!

I was actually skipping bits in the 4th thinking the Heat were cruising but damn. The Mavs have so much heart this year!

Amazing... 15 down with 6:30 to go.

Heat still don't look good down the stretch with their offence. I mean granted they've come this far, but Wade and LBJ have been making a lot of tough shots down the stretch. They didn't go in tonight and they really payed the price, Ballsy play with the Chalmers 3 though. Such a good finish!

Oh and while I'm gibbering--kudos to Marion... He really kept the Mavs in the game on the offensive side of things when they were in a really bad funk during the 2nd and 3rd. Really clutch performance by him tonight. Dirk doesn't look 100% on offence with his finger but he's still good enough to get it done.

For someone that watches basketball you amaze me sometimes.

Tyson Chandler has been killing the lane for an entire playoffs. They cant just WALTZ into the lane. Please stop being ignorant.


They didn't drive because they were cocky and stopped playing. It's as simple as that.


So explain why they couldn't get in the lane for most of Game 1 and the large portions of this game.


DWade made all but 4 of his shots from within the paint. 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.


Hindsight obviously, but have you been watching the same series I have? Their jump shot offense was working perfectly fine for them up until those final 7 minutes.


What worked for the heat were 700 Mavericks turnovers and easy points at the baskets and not their jump-shot game. The jumpshots are not what made the difference or what the heat should rely on just because they hit a few earlier. It was bad bad offense in the end there for the heat.

They get easy dunks and layups all the time and in addition they also manage to hit tough jumpers and all of a sudden they think they are invincible and take ridiculously bad hero-3-pointers in the end. That's what happened.

If you want to take jumpshots go ahead, but do it like the mavs did with ball-movement and playermovent instead of bad isos and a contested long-range shot with 2 seconds on the clock.

Well, keep in mind that settling for dagger threes is also pretty typical Lebron play. If they were playing the Suns, he still would've been taking a lot of those shots.

The Mavs are such a frustrating team to support. I pity their fans!

But anyway I'm glad they won, hopefully they won't turn the ball away a million times next time, and will win (as they should; they're the better team).

I knew that as soon as Terry finds his shot the Mavs would come back. And he did. The rest is history

It should be LaMarcus Aldridge, not Brandon Roy, in that first pic.

Heat are still the odds on favorite, but I loved the double screen Jet was running with Dirk and Chandler to close the game. Bosh screwed up defensively on that Dirk 3, Kidd 3, and the Dirk layup. He also turned it over on his one iso late, when he drove on Chandler.

Mavs' bench really needs to step up at home. Peja and Barrea are giving them nothing, so Cardinal actually played like 90 seconds in a finals game, wtf! Marion is playing like a boss, pretty much playing Lebron to a standstill so far, probably the most underrated storyline of this series. I don't think anyone else on Dallas is playing above their average, credit Heat D.

Miller's shoulder, Haywood's hip, Dirk tendon, not sure if any are factors. No chance for Caron. Next game on Sunday, I expect everyone to be fine.

Mavs, please please stop turning the balll over, and keep rebounding. If Miller's injured, Heat lose a good rebounder.

As usual, media gonna take an easy narrative over truth.

Please basketball gods, this dinosaur can't win a championship before Dirk.

Also, he originally played for the Toronto Raptors. Coincidence? Of course not.

Although, he does sort of look like an ostrich too.

Why the hell do you guys hate Chris Bosh so much? He's probably the one player with whom you can identify the most.

His self-description?

"A computer geek trapped in an athlete's body," he says.

http://www.nba.com/chat_and_mailboxes/chris_bosh.html#070410_01
http://www.palmbeachpost.com/sports/heat/not-just-a-typical-jock-miami-heat-forward-1253942.html

I know that I seem like a quiet guy to a lot of people


I love basketball, but when I'm not playing I like to chill at home a lot too. I have every gaming system out right now, but my favorite is the XBOX 360. If I'm not doing that I'm on my computer. I'm kind of a computer geek. I'm always surfing the internet, reading, or downloading stuff. I'm also working on my website, www.chris-bosh.com, all the time. Me and my friend are revamping the whole thing.


He also likes to take photographs and even write short screenplays.

Anyways, around the 15 minute mark he starts to talk about how Bosh is a completely different person then Wade and James. He goes on to say while D-Wade and LeBron go out to clubs together, Chris Bosh likes to read books, work on his computer, and get this... Find great 5-star cuisine to eat at. When he gets to an opponents city he is always on the look out for the best restaurants where he can go eat and "have some wine and go home and sleep".

And hopefully you guys also knew that Tim Duncan wanted people to nickname him Merlin, and he used to play David Robinson in Starcraft.

Yea @ igotmyown. Chris Bosh is like the most down to earth but nerdy guy around. To still be in touch with your gaming side and be one of the best basketball players in the world is absolutely a charm.
