If I was Avery(and this would probably get him killed) I'd personally slap every single Dallas player in the face to fire them up.

Dallas needs to play smarter, tighter, and more physical.
 
Miami's Benched stepped up. Posey, Haslem. And Payton hit the last shot of the game. Good Win for Miami.

Your Pistons were in the same position last year. People are already saying the series is over, yada yada, but Dallas did what they were supposed to do. They defended home court. Miami could very well do the same thing. If they do then it's a series again whether it be 2-2 or 3-2. If Dallas wins either of the next 2 games THEN it's time to plan a parade route. 'Til then, not so fast.

True...We're back in it!!!
 
That was a little TOO close. I thought the game was done early in the 4th, but the Heat came back and made this a series again. Anyway, good game. Ugly in the sense that there were plenty of turnovers and questionable calls, but other than that, that's how an NBA Finals game should be. I'm just hoping the Finals go on as long as possible. I don't want to watch baseball nor listen to dead air on sports radio for the next 3 months.

Don't worry we're still here, personally I'm just getting on the computer. About the game, Dallas should have won, they played really sloppy in the close of the fourth quarter and Dirk missing that free throw felt like a punch in the stomach. Honestly after seeing these last few games I believe Dallas is the better team and will end up winning the the series. But you know I gotta give Heat their props, they did what they had to do to stay alive.
Wade was fantastic, though he did foul Terry late in the fourth that should have put him out. But who am I to complain about bad calls or non-calls as it goes both ways.

Hahaha, I was surprised Shaq made his free throws. Guess you can never count him out at the line eh? :p

U know this is going to sound crazy but I would put shaq on the free throw line when the game is one the line than any other current nba player out there! I've seen him do this numerous times when he was in the Lakers!

We aren't going anywhere. We are the better team and deep down you all know it. Let's go Mavs!:up:
 
I would think that some of the Heat fans don't want to admit it, but this is gong to be a very, very tough series for the heat to win. I mean the Heat threw everything but the kitchen sink at the Mavs, & they barely won.

With all that said though. It has been a long time since I have seen one player seemly put the team on its shoulders in a game like this. The way D-Wade did. This kid is going places. What happened last night really reminded me of when I watched Jordan play. It was crazy. Any other team down 14 with 5 Min. left would have lost for sure. Hell I almost turned the channel. I am really looking forward to watching this dude blossom.
 
Mavericks To Incorporate Machetes Into Hack-A-Shaq Defense

lets go MAVS.... took their best shot and STILL almost won!....take game four and all shall be good again:up:
 
Screw the MAVS! But unfortunately they do have a better team since the MAVS have two life born losers.
 
How exactly did the Heat "throw everything but the kitchen sink at the Mavs" or "give it their best shot"? Wade was fantastic down the stretch, but Shaq wasn't really involved in the 2nd half, they had 8 points off the bench, missed a good number of open looks, made stupid unforced turnovers all night and played like complete crap in the 3rd quarter. Miami hasn't come close to collectively playing it's best ball yet.

I'll admit it. I still like our chances getting to play the next two at home and hopefully taking a 3-2 lead. Then we just have to win one of two on the road. I think if the Heat can get a bigger contribution from the bench in the next two it won't be as close.

Wade's back probably really hurts. I really don't like to make Jordan comparisons, but even if he isn't the next MJ, he certainly played like it last night. Give this kid a couple years.
 
where do i go to talk about wallace being a free agent?
