    Overall but, just like in any sports, you can outplay the team most of the game, but if the other team gets lucky, you can still lose.

    miami continues to score well, but the dallas' 3s are just back-breakers.

    if they can somehow manage to slow down dallas 3pt attack (might need a miracle b/c all heat opponents have been scorching from downtown), they will win.

    LOL you mean CHOKE away the game right?

    Or the other team just STEP UP when they need to?

    Or both?

    Yes luck is a part of it, but if it happens 3/5 times, then it probably isn't luck.

    But Miami's quest for a ring is worth so much more money if its delayed another year or two.

    Read my above post, Miami "overall" has played better, but Mavs have got it done when it counts.

    Heat has to keep House in the game because of his shooting but watch Dallas adjust to that in the second half.

    Whoever House will be guarding, will be attacking him on the other end.

    Mavs coaching staff has an edge on the cat & mouse game.

    That t-moblie commercial with the asian guy is really offensive to me. Yeah, this is what we'd be doing next to a hot girl, calling mom and saying in your face. Really???

    It's why the finals go to 7 games, so the better teams always win, as you can only get lucky so many times.

    As much as I can't stand Terry, those highlights ending with him talking about historically winning game 6, then cutting to him lighting it up tonight with "Like a G6" playing in the background=cool.


    Cocky little b*stard...

    Props to Erik Spo for making adjustments in this game, he's made some great ones... he can't do anything about Terry being hot.

    Heat has usually waited until the 4th quarter to put James on him.

    I thought they should have put James on him earlier this game.

    if you're good, you can afford to be cocky. he's been a big game player for most of his career, so i respect his swagger. you rarely see role players who loves the big stages more than most stars.

    So the Mavs 20-2 run in Game 2 was luck? What about 21-9 in game 4? 17-4 in Game 5?

    All of those 4th quarter runs were luck? You realize how stupid it is to say that?
