    Mavs in serious trouble if they don't figure out how to keep the Heat out of the paint. Miami's determined to live in there, so far.

    Dallas really choked at the end of the quarter there. 5 point turnaround right there.

    the reffing has been one-sided towards the mavs all series. i don't expect that to change.

    wade and lebron have been penetrating AT WILL and only got 2 fts total.

    mavs got more fts in that quarter and they settled for jumpers, as JVG pointed out.

    but you don't whine about those things right now. the heat can beat the mavs even if the refs are on their side.

    Regardless of foul calls, the aggressiveness going to the paint is working well for the Heat. The Mavericks are on their heels on defense a bit.

    I seriously wonder if all the backlash from the 06 Finals has these refs trigger happy to call fouls for Miami now. They weren't this aggressive in the first 2 games but tonight everything is inside and no calls.

    The Mavs bench is not looking good. Maybe the injuries are catching up to them.

    Mahinmi with 2 fouls, Mavs might have a issue with bigs..
    Lebron might get time at PF, if the Mavs go small.

    terrible call on lebron after stevenson pushes him. guess that makes up for all the other calls lebron and wade haven't gotten.

    The MVPs for Miami in this series are Barea and Stojakovic, hands down. Incredible how quickly these guys have gone from valuable role players to utter disasters.

    JJ should forget about any play setup, instead, he needs to concentrate on finishing his shots. A missed shot is still better than a sure turnover.
