    Not even the biggest haters would say that, It's why Wade and Bosh are on the team, to take over, when the other star player plays well. It's why they won the games, as they had Wade and Bosh play well. They should of been up 3-1, but choked, then lost there way.

    The Mavs should have been 4-0 against the Heat, but failed to play up to their standard in a couple of games.

    The Heat are lucky to win even one game against the Dallas. The Heat flatout choked the entire series, they were lucky Dallas wasn't completely focused in every game.

    I would say Dallas was lucky, Lebron didn't play like he did against Chicago, or Dallas would of been sweeped. The Heat were worthy finalists, as was Dallas, and it was the closest finals in 14 years. Both were the best teams in the NBA.

    Dallas was lucky to win the series?

    Lebron played like crap, the Heat were lucky they won even 1 or 2 games.

    Dallas showed up to play everytime, and I'm surprised the Heat managed to beat them a couple of times.

    The Heat deserve to be in the finals, but they don't deserve the championship. Hence the reason Mavs won it

    The better team always wins, and with the pathetic performance put up by the best player in the league, yeah I would say the Heat were lucky they managed to take more than one game off Dallas.

    Jordan's "failures" versus the Pistons were very different in that the Bulls were the clear underdog at that point. The Heat were definitely considered the favorites here (especially by themselves).

    Heat won Game 1 because their BS hero shots (which stopped falling from that point on) cut off the Mavs' patented comeback before it got going. Game 3 was a rare case of the Mavs' coming up short on the clutch, and BOSH of all people shooting the winning jumper for the Heat. But it was clear that the Mavs pretty much dictated how this series was going to be fought and won from start to finish.
