    Brilliant move to have LeBron shut Terry down.

    I actually think Wade can do the same and then Heat can put James on Dirk in the 4th quarter. That way Dirk wont be getting those cheap calls he had been getting against Haslem.

    If Dirk and Terry are shut down by Lebron and Dwane, I dont see Mavs scoring enough to pull out wins.

    The great thing about the Heat, is if you like tough, smart D, you love watching them, as they fight and grind out every possession, and don't give up.
    It's no wonder JVG loves the Heat and the way Lebron plays.

    Here are some things David Stern said :

    NBA Commissioner David Stern said there still has been no formal tampering complaint from Cavaliers over loss of LeBron.

    Of LeBron, Bosh and Wade possibly talking before July 1, 2010 about joining forces, David Stern said, “I don’t consider it colluding.”

    Stern said the league might consider awarding the overall MVP after the completion of the playoffs. “It’s an idea that should get some traction,” Stern said. In other words, no more Derrick Rose-LeBron fiascos.

    Omg. I forgot the spoiler.

    I am really sorry.

    I am accepting of all religions, no matter how different they are from mine.

    I did not mean to insult your lord and savior.

    Please accept my most sincere apology. And that goes to SacTown and Severe Rockets Fan as well.

    Once again, I am really really sorry.

    I actually like that idea. Give it to the true most valuable player.

    Dallas needs to wake up badly if they ever want to have a chance of winning this. As much as i don't like the Heat and Lebron, it is only fair to give them undeniable credit for being the hungrier team in this game.

    Lets not get carried away about the Heat sweeping Dallas. I think Miami will win but I will be shocked if they swept Dallas.

    Anyway on tonights game, the key for Miami was not letting Jose Barea go off. He has been a huge spark for Dallas in a few games.

    JVG definitely says the Heat have the best defense and that James is the best player in the league. He acknowledges their talent level and probably loves the way they play defense.

    But I haven't heard him say he loves this Heat team, not like how he used to go on and on about the 22-win Rockets team and their team-first mentality. Or the way he professes his love for James Harden every chance he gets.

    It feels more like he's recognizing the obvious more than anything else.

    But haters gonna hate, right?

    It's pretty obvious that Van Gundy loves the Heat.

    jordan and pippen.

    pippen can shut down lebron, jordan can shut down wade.

    wade can shut down pippen, lebron can give jordan some fit, but it ends there.

    the guy with the best midrange game wins.

    Having Butler for this series would greatly help Dallas.

    I hope they win so maybe the media will stop throwing them in our faces so much...But can you imagine if they dont win???.....Might as well call Sportscenter : Heat Hard Knocks .... They can focus on up and coming teams instead of Heat all day all night
