I think everybody is slowly learning that the Miami Heat are a decent team; even if they do not win the title; they have three elite players and with a decent supporting cast they can be really good. I admit I had Dallas sweeping this series or at least going in 5; but then recapped the series during the regular season and changed my mind. I actually think Dallas will lose in 5 or 6 because of the same reason the Bulls lost to to the Heat.
Dallas does not have that many actual play makers. They forced the Matrix (Sean Marion) to score and I believe that takes away from the nature of the game of the successful Dallas Mavericks. Even Stevenson was forced to hit threes instead of focus on defense.
Also Dallas was held to one of the lowest shooting percentages of the playoff... thanks to the quick and strong responding Miami Heat defense. So Dallas loses game one by 8 points, 92 to 84 and Miami gets one game closer to shocking the world and making a LOT of Cleveland fans disturbingly upset. D. Wade finally looked like the D. Wade of old... his slow hesitating jump shot was back; but he's still getting stripped in the lane like he's in high school.
Note worthy, tell Lebron James to watch out and not put himself into the basket as he nearly did when he dunked the alley-hoop from Wade... as we use say when we played... "and the cow jumped over the moon..."
Post Up Game... holla at me
