Now that we know it's the Miami Heat vs. the Dallas Mavericks Who's going to win? Please vote before Thursday (when the finals start). Peace. ________ "The mind is like a parachute. It works best when it is open." - Rickson Gracie
Tough to pick...Nowitzki is playing like he is possessed...and Shaq like he is 10...ok maybe 8 years younger... I like the Heat bcoz of the experience of Pat Riley and of the players...Shaq, Payton...and Wade is terrific!!!
We will just have to see but I have to go with the Mavs. I've been scared of them all season long. Maybe I'm bitter but I think that the Pistons sudden collapse made the Heat look better than they really are...
This series is so evenly matched that I haven't yet made a pick. I think Miami has the advantage in overall talent and as much as I like Dallas coach Avery Johnson, Miami's Pat Riley is one of the greatest coaches in NBA history. Dirk Nowitzki is on a roll, but the only other player on Dallas who's scoring consistently is Josh Howard. Both of these teams are likable, but wouldn't it be cool to see Mark Cuban holding the trophy at the end? Peace. _________ "The road goes on forever and the party never ends." - Robert Earl Keen
After last night`s game, only one name shall we remember folks!! DWYANE WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADE!!!!!! Last night, Simply JORDANESQUE!!!!
Yo Bmanz...give some credit to da brotha, c`mon!! 42 pts!!! 15 pts in the 4th quarter....including some insane hanging time in one of the layups...13 rebounds...the key block to deny the potentially game-tying alley-hoop to Josh Howard at the end of regulation!!...and all of that on a BAD KNEE!!! What more do you need???? Wade was GREAT man, great!!!
Hey as a Pistons fan, I know how great he is. Remember this is the same dude that scored 17 STRAIGHT points to be us back in February at the end when we had a 16 point lead in the 4th quarter. Just like I said about my Pistons then, I'll say the same thing about the Mavs now. There is absolutely no excuse to lose that game. They were up by 13 late in the fourth. They just got scared and choked. They started to turn the ball over, Avery got rattled and called timeout to late, and my man Dirk got scared at the free throw line. There is simply no excuse for losing that game!!! It was a choke job plain and simple!!! So yes, I know D.Wade is great. Thats a given. What else is new! There is still absolutely no excuse for losing that game! This is the freakin' NBA finals we are talking about!!!!! B
I want Dallas to win I hope they got a good scare last Tuesday with Miami's awesome come back in the last quarter and will kick some Miami butt tonight. .......I'll be back after the game to either talk smack or crouch in shame, depending on the outcome :lol:
Whoa...Sorry Chigirl...well, Germany won yesterday at the World Cup so you can find some comfort in that!! But Bmanz was right, as great as Wade was in game 3, the Mavs Choked...now tonight, my man Bmanz, you gotta give it ALL to the FLASH!!! UNSTOPPABLE!!! This guy, along with Lebron, Melo, are going to set the NBA on fire for years to come!!!!! GO HEAT!!!
That hurts because either Wade or Melo could have been in a Pistons uniform. Imagine that with Tayshaun and McDyess coming off the bench! Oh my Lord the dominance that could take place! Damn! Now I'm pissed!!!!!!
It's not over yet! LOL I am the eternal optimist and if there is one thing I like it's a good, hard fight for the win. Sooooooo, let's see what happens next.
Man...Dallas is reaaaaaaaaaaally trying to lose these finals...this IS INSANE!!! But whether the Heat win or lose, DWYANE WADE has to be the MVP of these finals...this guy just takes games over in a heartbeat and NOBODY can stop him!!!! CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!
Man this suuuuuucks.... someone has to stop Dwayne Wade that guy is amazing. It's almost like he is completely fearless, really amazing. Let's see if Dallas gets some mental help playing at home.
I hope so. I give D.Wade much, much props especially for the last 2 games. I still hold to my point that if Dallas had not choked away game 3 they would be champions right now...
Ich bin so mude...to hear the Mavs cry and cry and cry... The Mavs need to stop whining like little girlies and start playing B-ball... Achtung!!! Nowitzki needs to stop singing Hasselhoff songs and kicking equipment in the locker room and start driving more to the basket! Mark Cuban just needs to shut up for like...30 seconds...well maybe 15, bcoz 30 might be too long! Choking is a part of sport...your opponent makes mistakes and you capitalize on them!! GO HEAT!!!
Agree, agree, agree with what both of you say.. Dallas needs to stop whining and needs to stop missing free throws when they are only leading with 2 points :twisted: Jreminator, quite impressed there with your German. Maybe, one day, you can sing a Hasselhoff song in German for us LOL. Alright, let's see how they do tonight. I guess Mark Cuban's behavior is a big topic today on all sports outlets wondering if he is hurting the team. What do you think? ... There could be backlash if the ref's get ticked off at him...
Not looking too good right now fam. The Mavs just look bad right now. I think they know they blew a golden opportunity and do not posses the mental fortitude to rise to the occasion. As for the Heat, damn they look great right now. I hate to admit it but maybe they had something to do with how bad the Pistons played after all. They are only 1 quarter away from being champions...
