2010-11 NBA Playoffs / Finals

Attaboy Dirk...blew right by Bosh.  Garbage.

[Atzar]

Go back, read the last few pages, and realize how ridiculous some of the knee-jerk reactions were.  

But seriously, heck of a gutsy comeback by the Mavs.  This is the kind of win that can really turn a series around, and I still don't think the Mavs have played their best ball.

But by that coin, neither have the Heat.

1-1 going back to play three straight in Dallas.... I feel good about this

[Adelaide Celt]

Miami finally went back to their old habits from early in the season, losing their nerve down the stretch.

That was the moment for Dallas. That was the stirring, highly improbable victory they needed to go on and win this title.

Yes. Maybe Dallas have 'it' this year. 

That looked the Heat team during most the regular season. They couldn't hit the ocean late.

this is the second time these Veteran Mavs have come back from double digits to win in the last 6minutes...amazing!

I wish we had that same discipline when playing the heat

Anyone else notice that all these incredible comebacks this postseason (Heat vs. Bulls, Mavs vs. Thunder and Heat) have all been sparked by a "dagger 3" by the other team? Deng (I think), Durant, and Wade tonight. Interesting.

Actually, I think it's at least the 3rd... they did it to OKC games 4&5 if I remember correctly.

[snively]

The Heat's shot selection down the stretch was terrible.  Wade and LeBron took so many fadeaway 3s when they'd been so successful driving.

For awhile, those 3's were going in though....its those 3's that killed us in games 2,4,5 against the heat...luckily theyve cooled off

Yeah I completely agree. They were making those ridiculous shots against us and against the Bulls. Nobody was saying those shots were bad in those games because they were going in.

If those 2 make those ridiculous shots on a consistent basis they will not be beat. If they come back down to earth than I don't think they are nearly as good.

In game 2 after they beat us I remember thinking the same thing: "there's nothing we can do if they are going to make shots like that"....."eventually those shots will not fall" etc etc. They fell against us and then I thought they wouldn't fall against the Bulls- but they did. Now lets see what happens with the Mavs.

Wade and James were on an unbelievable hot streak against us and the Bulls. They aren't great shooters and certainly shouldn't be making ridiculous fadeaways the way they have been recently. If they lose any sort of confidence/those shots just don't go in than the Mavs could definitely take this. Us or the Bulls could have too but those shots fell in that series

Amazing win WOW

[Adelaide Celt]

If Miami had won they would have broken the record for most consecutive home wins in the Playoffs, currently 10. That record is jointly held by several other teams including the 86 Celtics, who were of course undefeated at home throughout those entire Playoffs.

Dirk is a great player. Dirk is an incredibly soft player. Don't think there is a tough bone in the guy's body.

Bahahaha.
