[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Quick notes

I’m glad Mario Chalmers is starting.

It’s pretty cool to see Dwyane Wade in uniform while everybody is in warm-ups.  This dude is ready.

Marc Anthony got down on the national anthem.

[MagikKnickParticipant]

Wades not playing any games tonight…lets see what he does

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

LeBron hits his first shot

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

And gets in the lane.

[R-Dot-13Participant]

Dwayne Wade is just so good at attacking the rim.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

He made that layup look so easy

[Scottoant93Participant]

wow this great everyone is knocking there shots

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

LeBron has come to play.

[MagikKnickParticipant]

 Maybe i got it confused..Lebron is the one not playing any games..

4/4

[royk927Participant]

looks like Bron is playing with a chip on his shoulder.

[Scottoant93Participant]

lebron on fire. barea us horrible at setting dirk up, he always passes him the ball out of his shootin pocket

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Dirk has missed two open Js and already has a foul.  One more foul on him in the next 2-3 minutes and the Mavs could be in trouble.  Great to see all 5 Heat starters playing aggresively.  LeBron and Wade are themselves.  Bosh is moving around well.  Joel Anthony is hustling on the boards.  And Chalmers is moving very well as well.

[TyrekeJonesParticipant]

Now this is the Lebron we shoulda seen all series, finally

[Scottoant93Participant]

wow i thought that was goin to be an offensive foul, mavs need to take them serious there a little too confident it looks

[Scottoant93Participant]

so dirk misses the easy ones but makes the tough one haha

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Barea seems as unstoppable as Dirk at times. 

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Two on Dirk.  Bosh is being very aggresive on the offensive end.

Let’s see if Miami holds Brian Cardinals d!ck.

[Scottoant93Participant]

haha  the custodian unsung hero

[Scottoant93Participant]

jet is wet!

[Scottoant93Participant]

omg we finally found out why James hasnt shown up he didnt take his sheets energy lmao

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

LeBrick is back…

[Scottoant93Participant]

looks like jet took his energy hes hitting everything

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Jason Terry is on fire.

Watching Miami’s offense against the zone is sad… I mean, you learn in elementary school to get the ball in the middle of the damn zone. I’d put LeBron in the middle. And just because it’s a zone doesn’t mean you can’t attack it.

Dallas is going to win this game.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Miami cannot attack the zone whatsoever.

[KayjayParticipant]

Dallas is really playing defense on mostly Lebron. Watching every one of his movements. Forcing him to hit jump shots.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

If I told you Chandler and Nowitzki picked up two fouls in the 1st and LeBron hit his first 4 FG as well, one would think that Miami is dominating.  Not the case.

[Scottoant93Participant]

I agree it looks like eric spoelstra hasnt addressed the zone at all, theyre still lost,mavs are winning with dirk and chandler(i think) on the bench, this proves miami is not ready to win a championship just yet(unless of course they finally figure it out)

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

And he’s doing exactly what they want by settling for that fool’s gold.

LeBron needs to attack the zone and get in the middle. That’s when the defense will collapse and he’ll be able to kick it out to Bosh, House, Miller, etc.

[R-Dot-13Participant]

For the Heat to win this game Wade needs to take over… Jet on fire, Barea is sick.. Dirk will get his

Dallas wins 110-99

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Mahinmi is giving them GREAT minutes.

[Scottoant93Participant]

mahimi steppin up i like his energy

[R-Dot-13Participant]

Stevenson is feeling it

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Can Bosh keep anybody off of the boards?

Dallas is in they ass right now. This is exactly what I said… Dallas’ role players have gotten confidence. Tough to turn that off. Miami should’ve stepped on Dallas’ throat when they had the chance.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

I think that’s game.  It’s early but Miami cannot score at all against this zone and Dallas is red-hot from downtown.

[KayjayParticipant]

They may come away with this one. Miami is making no effort to do anything. If Miami does some how win this game. I wouldn’t say they deserved it. Because this effort is disgusting.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

I agree with Mark Jackson.  Dwyane Wade hits a three in front of the Mavs bench and everybody raves about how disrespectful he is.  DeShawn Stevenson literally WALKS over to the Heat bench and shows off and nobody says a word.

[Scottoant93Participant]

tol23 i know it looks bad but lets wait til the end of the game all games have been like this

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Spoelstra should’ve put Chalmers in the starting lineup a long time ago.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Barea flops so much, the refs were not even sure if that was a foul or not. 

Talk about "Boy Who Cried Wolf"

[DanEboyParticipant]

TOL23…you really don’t get the difference between Wade and Stevenson doing that?

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Stevenson is notorious for that… He has to showboat or do something after every made bucket. He’s been doing it since Washington.

He needs to cut that out and just play. Let’s see if it adds some fuel to Miami. 

And lmfao at that robot boxing movie. What in the hell will they think of next?  

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

I do not.  What did anyone expect Wade to do?  Walk over to his bench then show his happiness or show his happiness right after he hit the shot?

[R-Dot-13Participant]

Dwyane Wade in beast mode

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Tremendous block my Wade.

Miami played a lot better with Wade as the primary playmaker instead of Wade.

Finally someone gets into Stevenson’s face.  Too bad it’s Chalmers, he’s too good for the Heat to lose.

[DanEboyParticipant]

I never had a problem with Wade showing off. But of course he is going to catch more flak for doing it than a guy like Stevenson.

[Scottoant93Participant]

tol23 thats a stupid comment you never want to players to get into each other faces its a tech, a possible suspenion bad decision this gam is not even over

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

We see it all the time.  Like I said before, it’s about time somebody gets into Stevenson’s face.

[Scottoant93Participant]

also i dont care if anyone shows off either wade or even the worst play imaginable, play the game shut up and trash talk after you win something, thats selfish as hell if you get suspended and cost your team the game

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Let’s see who gets ignited after that scuffle.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

LeBron James:  -5 on the court

Dwyane Wade:  +10 on the court

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Chandler and Mahinmi out, James and Wade are having fun in the lane.

[Scottoant93Participant]

SHOOTOUT!

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Chalmers is good, but not good enough to be shooting that.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Jason Terry is keeping them in the game

[Scottoant93Participant]

wow i didnt know terry was in the league 12 years i could have sworn he was younger i thought it was like 8th

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

What?  LeBron at the line?!

[Scottoant93Participant]

lebron cant hit ft wtf

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Refs missed a kick ball.

[Scottoant93Participant]

kicked ball, dirk need to attack the rim

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Barea finally found someone as quick and small as him.  Eddie House.

[marcusfizer21Participant]

 Wrong time for Dirk to be 1 for 11…

[Scottoant93Participant]

how was that a foul chalmers ankle slipped underneath him

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Jason Terry is playing amazing right now.

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

I’m not too worried about Dirk.

He’s not going to keep missing these wide open shots. I think he needs to bend his knees more and get up under his shots. Small adjustment for him to make.

[TyrekeJonesParticipant]

Wanna know why Dallas is still up with Dirk playing so poor? Its Jason Terry, he can’t miss

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

TyrekeJones

I think we already knew that… lmao

[WizardofOzParticipant]

Man, Dirk can’t buy a basket. He’s been getting good looks too.

[TyrekeJonesParticipant]

It’s just suprising, if I were to be told Dirk would only have one field goal made in the first half of this game, I would expect Miami to be up by double digits, not down by two, just shows how hard they are playing.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Yeah I know.  Stevenson and Terry really came through

[BBall4life88Participant]

This has been the best Finals I can remember.

I hope the Mavs win the Finals but I’m rooting for the Heat tonight just so I can see another great game.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Free throws and turnovers are hurting the Heat.  That, and Jason Terry/Stevenson

[WizardofOzParticipant]

How many wide open shots did Miami just pass up?

[KayjayParticipant]

lol is awful by the Heat. Omg lolololol

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

That was the worst offensive sequence I’ve ever seen.

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Is Barea really that damn good?

[I May Be WrongParticipant]

get aggressive man! he’s not showing that flare in the first 4 minutes of the game

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Indiana

That’s exactly what I was thinking.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Flagrant

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

The Heat are going to lose this game. I can just feel it.

They’ll make another run and make it interesting though.

Why in the hell did LeBron just try to split three defenders?

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Wade is forcing it in the wrong ways.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Yeah, Miami isn’t playing with ANY sense of urgency, whatsoever.

Wake up Miami, it’s game 6!  If you guys lose, it’s OVER.

[providencefriars1Participant]

I’ve gained a lot of respect for Cardinal this series. I never knew he could ball.

[MagikKnickParticipant]

 Is Bibby hurt? Or is Spoelstra giving him this DNP tonight?

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Brian Cardinal is earning his minutes!!!!

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

My only question to Spoelstra regarding Bibby is "What in the hell took you so long?"

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Spoelstra is just giving him a DNP.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Funny, if Juwan Howard of Jamal Magloire came in fouling as hard as Cardinal, most people would say they are playing dirty.  But since it’s a Mavs player, he’s earning his minutes.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Whenever Shawn Marion shoots a J or throws up a floater, it looks as if he doesn’t care and just throws it but.. it usually finds the bottom of the net.

[providencefriars1Participant]

Lebron has 1 shot this quarter? seriously, cmon man?

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

IF it were Howard or Magloire, I’d say the same thing.

A good foul is a good foul. Cardinal has had two good fouls, not giving up the and one, and he took a great charge against Wade.

Cardinal has really done well in my opinion.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Anybody think Miami has a chance?  I mean, LeBron isn’t shooting, they are constantly turning the ball over, Dallas is hitting the 3ball, and Miami can’t hit a free throw.

[MagikKnickParticipant]

 Smart Decision, Barea was torching Bibby – Didnt know Erik Spoelstra had it in him to make "big" decisions like that..

—

Wow, Kidd with a crazy 3, Ian with buzzer beater..Its Dallas’ Night!

[BBall4life88Participant]

 Here we go….

4th quarter, Will LeBron come through?

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

It’s now or never for LeBron.

Actually, now or next year.. but you get the point.

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Heat down 9, with Dirk playing his worst game of the playoffs.

Dirk isn’t going to keep missing in the fourth. This game is a wrap.

[KayjayParticipant]

Done I tell you! Lol nah, all in all Miami has no heart. Dallas has got it. So they deserve to win it. Call me crazy but for the first 4 games, Miami looked like the superior team, now, I don’t know lol. Heat will most likely be there again next year. Hopefull next time they will get it together.

[BBall4life88Participant]

 I don’t think Wade is going to wait for LeBron to do anything….look for Wade to start taking over. 

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Hell of a finish by Wade

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Dallas has really impressed me and pretty much every single basketball fan in these playoffs.  They showed mental toughness and they are playing spectacular.

What a pass by Chalmers and a dunk/layup by Wade.

[OhCanada-Participant]

The thing that kills me about all of this is the fact that people were really calling LBJ the best player ever…I mean it got to the point where people werent even questioning if he was "AS" good as MJ they were just saying he is a better player…Best player in the league? Maybe he was looking like the best in the league during the beginging of the playoffs, but not anymore. Although I am not mad at a bias fan for saying that. I wonder what all the Lebron dickriders will do if they lose tonight…will they finally disappear?

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Is it fair to say that Chalmers has outplayed LeBron at times throughout the series?

[OhCanada-Participant]

And dont get me wrong, by Lebron dickriders I dont mean Lebron fans, or someone who appreciates his game. I mean the guys who say he is the best ever, and definitely noone in the NBA is even close to his talent level, blah blah blah. I wish I could be a fan of Lebron, but his ignorant fans make it so hard for me to appreciate him.

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Nah… They’ll blame someone else. Spoelstra, Bosh… Somebody. The bench. Bibby. Alonzo Mourning maybe?

[MagikKnickParticipant]

I know its very early but..

I wish this was one of those Buffalo Wild Wings commercials…and I could press a button to force overtime..I dont want this game to end!

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Wade doing a lot of pouting and crying…

JJ Barea cannot be this good. I want to guard him…

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Barea and Dirk’s recent shooting success is the reason the Mavericks advanced and maybe have won the NBA Finals.

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Putting Barea in the starting lineup was HUGE.

He’s basically been breaking that Miami D and getting into the gaps.

I thought he was a fluke watching him early in the playoffs, but this little dude is legit.

[BBall4life88Participant]

 Barrea is really repping for the little guys.

I love it!

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Wade… Wtf is he doing?

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Yessir, that’s GAME OVER.

[MagikKnickParticipant]

 Isaiah Thomas(WA) must be happy as hell right now…

If he ever gets to meet Barea he should give him a Shaq-Kiss

 

[knicksfan7Participant]

JJ Barea= Speedy Claxton.

[Scottoant93Participant]

haha yYeah wheres caneboy haha Mavs are goin to win this,  barea is a beast hes earned my respect

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Lmao at them showing that Miami Heat rally…

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Indiana

I know right?  Hahaha

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

That was a sad call… Damn.

[BBall4life88Participant]

 Miami is going to have to beat the Mavs with outside shots, their zone is limiting the penetration

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Unless we see a comeback of the ages, this is over.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Bosh has been playing quietly well.

[MagikKnickParticipant]

 Its the Dallas Mavs vs The Refs right now..

[PlatypusParticipant]

can the refs not see how much miami is leaning into guys, its really pissing me off

[Scottoant93Participant]

alright heat getting some cheap fouls, looks like nba wants a game 7 lets go mavs make david stern your biitch

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

"lets go mavs make david stern your biitch"

LMAO, I actually laughed out loud

[BBall4life88Participant]

 there’s going to be a flopping clinic put on by the Heat here

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Can’t wait to hear what Cuban has to say if Dallas wins

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Mavs better watch out… Refs out to get them.

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Man… Miami is going to have to watch Dirk and Cuban hug and celebrate on their floor. OUCH!!!

Cuban gon act a foo…

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Is it just me or is Chalmers the ONLY Heat player that is playing with a sense of urgency?

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Wow… Miami giving up.

[MagikKnickParticipant]

DAGGER.

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

Miami completely gave up

[LazarusMunozParticipant]

is it just me or is there alot of Dallas fans tonigt?? it almost sounds pretty even at time…

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Damn… Dirk done put his foot in Bosh’s ass this series.

Miami deserved this… They needed to be humbled.

 

[DanEboyParticipant]

I am thoroughly loving watching LeBron disappear again in the clutch.

[BBall4life88Participant]

 Mark Jackson needs to settle down with the comments

[Scottoant93Participant]

haha idc if miami wins the next 6 championship dirk kidd and jet derseve this

[MagikKnickParticipant]

 Heat crowd leaving, lmao

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

As much as I hate to agree with what Indiana just said, Miami did indeed deserve this.  Maybe now they’ll realize they can’t win on just talent alone.

Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard. 

[Scottoant93Participant]

haha chandler pushed bosh haha

[MagikKnickParticipant]

 Congratulations Dirk and JKidd on well-deserved NBA Championship Rings!

[BBall4life88Participant]

 It’s good to see Dirks expressions. H’e so happy, good for him.

[Scottoant93Participant]

MAVS 2011 CHAMPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DanEboyParticipant]

Mark Jackson…..SHUT THE FU%K UP with that stupid saying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BBall4life88Participant]

where is Dirk going?….you won man!

[jrollParticipant]

How hasnt Miami worked hard to deserve it, they made it to the NBA finals.  They probably worked harder that any team if only for that fact that every team in the NBA were giving them there best shot.  I’m glad Dallas won because Kidd and Dirk have worked hard, and Miami will probably win a few in the upcoming years but to say they don’t work hard in just plain stupid.

[BBall4life88Participant]

 JET! He’s awsome

[WizardofOzParticipant]

Mavs barely celebrating.

[BBall4life88Participant]

I gotta give the Mavs credit but that 4th quarter was pathetic for the Heat.

Having an all star and two superstars and to basically fade away in the 4th quarter…i don’t get it, the Heat were not meant to win this year. 

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Lmfao at the Miami Heat.

Dallas celebrating with class.

Bosh was crying… Again.

[aamir543Participant]

Where is Dirk going, and my TV has been usurped by my family members, does anyone know of an online streaming site where I can watch the celebration and the trophy presentation

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Cuban being very classy…

[BBall4life88Participant]

Mark Cuban is getting black out drunk tonight!

[aamir543Participant]

Dirk Nowitzki went in to the locker room to get the key to unlock Cuban’s mouth.

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

How many points did LeBron have in the fourth?

[Tongue-Out-Like-23Participant]

But…but…. Chris Bosh just wanted to chill… :/ :'(

[KayjayParticipant]

had the most points in the fourth out of his entire team.

[aamir543Participant]

7, 2 jumpers and a three

[BBall4life88Participant]

 I wish they could have won it in Dallas, kind of a lame celebration.

[OhCanada-Participant]

I thought Kidd said he was retiring if Dallas won..I was writing a nice article about ow Dallas would go about replacing him, Andre Miller would fit in nice…so would Jose Calderon, o well.

[aamir543Participant]

I am not able to watch tv at the moment, is Dirk back?

[BBall4life88Participant]

I think LeBron and Wade clashed again in that 4th quarter. They didn’t know how to play off eachother and you could tell they both wanted the ball to try to takeover the game but they didn’t know who should do it. That sums up this year for the Heat, they can’t close games and don’t know how to play the 4th quarter. 

[marcusfizer21Participant]

 I will cry if Jason Kidd wins a ring… (sniff sniff)… here it comes… 

DeShawn Stevenson = 1 ring

LeBron James = 0

[OhCanada-Participant]

They always preach the fact that they wanted to win, they wanted to have the best chance possible to win championships. Why put two dominant perimeter ball handlers/scorers on the floor with a dominant high post ball handler/scorer. This team could have been built much better, even if that would mean it was in LA, Chicago, New York, or any other team that was stacked. Lebron made a big mistake by going to Wades playground, should have gone to New York with Stat, maybe then Deron Williams could have even fallen into their laps and…aww forget it.

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

"Not one… Not two… Not three… Not four… Not five……." LeBron James

[KayjayParticipant]

Alriiiighhhtttt, alrriiiighhhht, Lets be fair. Lol they still made it to the Finals on a gimped team. And to call it being a mistake is just horrible.

[aamir543Participant]

"…Not 6, Not 7" Sorry Indiana Basketball, I had to finish the quote. (If it weren’t for the cheering of the crowd, he would have gone on)

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Jammin-Lemon is depressed.

[marcusfizer21Participant]

 feels great to see Dirk, Jet, my man JKidd, Marion, Tyson, Brendan, those guys finally getting a ring… Woooohoooo! Unbelievable how the series went..

Indiana, do you still feel there is something lacking in this series?

[aamir543Participant]

Mark Cuban’s mouth, my theory is that Dirk Nowitzki shut it, and locked it, thats why he went to the locker room after the game, to get the key. And I do agree that Heat fans are the worst in the NBA. Warrior Regular season games against the Pistons are louder than Miami fans in game 6 of the finals. Trust me, I can testify.
