    Seriously, this has got be historical. In the history of the league has there ever been a guy that just about missed the entire regular season and even some of the post season on a championship caliber team then show up and mesh like was playing with the team the entire season? Haslem deserves recognition for such out of now where return.

    Refs know what they are doing. Everytime Dallas makes a run, some bull**** call to stop the momentum. They are good.

    what is bosh doing? he's passing up everything, missing when he does take it. and haslem messes up on that layup instead of going at dirk.

    Miami's defensive intensity has stepped up in the 4th.

    He is always a little too unselfish. That is the part he needs to work on so he can take over when the game is on the line.

    alright, lebron you have to shoot, stop passing it to bosh. apparently no matter how open he looks he's going to hesitate and mess up the possession.

    no one leave a 3 point shooter open.

    he has a lot of stretches were he is passive. frustrating at times because he can take over but he chooses to pass to srubs

    one thing about jordan was, he was NEVER passive

    If either teams' fans are complaining about the refs thus far the NBA can do no right. Been pretty evenly called. Some mistakes, but going both ways.

    I hate Dallas but it's amazing how the high profile teams get BS calls in their favor. When the game gets close at the end, there are a lot of chippy calls. When the team gets down by a ton, the refs let them play. It plays an incredible role in how the game is played.

    LeBron is playing a very nice, controlled game. Getting Haslem and Bosh involved. Takes a few shots as necessary. Don't worry, if he needs to, he'll take over- him and Wade. We saw it against Boston, we saw it against Chicago, and we'll most likely see it against Dallas.

    Miami's playing great D on him. Good double teams to get the ball out of his hands.

    Terry's not doing a good job getting the ball to him. Fortunately, the Mavs have Kidd.

    Also, with Yao's work ethic it is possible. Haslem started practicing with the team but did not play in the games. We could just sit Yao out and have him only in practices to have that type of team chemistry then bame he shows up in the Post Season. We pick up a some big guys to for the regular season and a healthy Yao is a surprise edition for the playoffs. Yao is a pro and knows how to play the game like an Alonzo Mourning who just returns out of nowhere after dealing with kidney problems, so all that is needed is regular season practice.
