    The most frustrating part about this series is that the Heat are not playing up to their potential. If Wade, Lebron, and Bosh were all playing great, and the Heat still lost, I would feel much better because the Mavs were the better team. Right now, I just feel the Mavs are taking advantage of a...

    When Lebron James and Dwyane Wade are playing at a very high level, the Heat are best team in the league (and I think most people would agree). We've seen that for most of this post season, but for some reason (except game 1), we haven't seen that this series. This is the reason why I'm still...

    Miami probably would have lost this series in 4. Chemistry concern? Like when Nelson was out for Orlando and they tried to ***** him back in.

    As if I could have predicted Wade getting injured, and Lebron have the worst meltdown of his career. But I'll give Dallas the majority of the credit for this win. Maybe the first time all series I thought Dallas was the better team. 13-19 for 3s? That's just ridiculous. :bowdown: Wade needs...

    I could assume Dirk is getting under-the-table **** as well, but how could I prove that? I can't. So I'll just assume it doesn't happen. And for endorsements, Lebron probably took a huge hit there. He would have probably made more with New York or Chicago. While you guys up north are...

    For one, you can't buy titles in the NBA. There's a salary cap. You can sell free agents on the idea of success when they come to you team, but you can't buy titles. The Yankees buy titles. The Heat didn't do something any another team couldn't do. But when you can live the lifestyle like you...

    How is it ridiculous? Miami has had double digit leads in just about every game this series. Even in the fourth, Miami had a big leads. If someone besides Wade could step up, Miami would win comfortably. What's ridiculous is that everyone assumes Lebron is going to keep playing the way he's been...

    Exactly! Just another game that we just gave away. And I'm not just going to put the blame on Lebron, this is on Wade too. Wade only had 2 FG attempts in the last 7 and a half minutes. Wade is almost unstoppable in this series and he's not talking advantage of it. With that said, he still had a...

    The Heat are clearly the better team right now. I still have a hard time seeing the Mavs lose 3 games at home. The Heat will win in 6.

    Last nights lose was all on the Heat and everyone knows it. After that 3 by D-Wade, the Heat got too cool for school and thougt the game was over. Wade wasn't even trying in the final 6 minutes, just let Lebron do his thing. If the Heat just played their game they would have won that game...

    Just an awesome game! I never thought I would see the Heat bench outscore the Mavs bench, but they did. Can't expect that to happen again though. I think Wade and Lebron got a good feel on how the Mavs are going to play them. I expect a big performance from the both of them in game 2. I wouldn't...

    Yeah, hopefully Wade plays like he had before the Chicago series. There has been a lot of talk here about whether Wade is injured. I just think it was great Chicago defense. I personally think Wade is going to play amazing, mainly because I don't see anyone staying in front of him. Even though...

    Wow... how sweet was that? I thought for sure this was going to a game 6. I came very close to burning my D-Wade jersey, but he finally came through.

    I'm not the only one who thought this, they were talking about this on ESPN yesterday. It seems the Bulls have a lot of guys who are athletic and play D, but no one (except Rose) who can create their own shot. Icecold just named a couple of guys the Bulls could have picked up. I'm sure if the...

    I'm not sure of what happened at the trade deadline, but it didn't appear they did anything to make a move to get a legit #2 or #1 scorer. I guess the Bulls felt a PG that shoots 43% was all they needed. There's more to basketball than defense and rebounding.

    C'mon, you had to expected it. When you win MVP there is an instant target on your back. Right now Lebron and Dirk are doing the things expected from Rose and the Bulls. Honestly I'm not really surprised because I've seen this story the past two seasons. The Bulls and their fans were too...

    Uhh... Miami's a better defensive team than Indiana and Atlanta. It's that simple. Fundamentally, Miami's in a different league than those teams. And in game 1, Derrick Rose scored a lot of his points on jump shots or on transition. The major difference in that game is 31 second chance points...

    Again, you can't look at the regular season and expect things to play out the same in the playoffs. Lebron won a lot of games with the Cavs playing basically 1-on-5 then got exposed in the playoffs. I think we're staring to see the same with the Bulls. Also, even if Rose gets past Bibby or...

    Well, it's hard to get to the cup when the Heat basically trap Rose on every pick-n-roll. I don't know if there's a better team that defends the pick-n-roll better than Miami. If Chicago wants to get back into this series it's going to have to start with the supporting cast because the Heat are...

    Game 1: Chicago shot 43%, Miami shot 47%. So how the hell did Miami lose? Rebounding (specifically offensive)! Game 2: Chicago shot 34%, Miami shot 47%. So how the hell was Chicago in this game? Rebounding (offensive) and less turnovers. Chicago is not an efficient offensive team, so the...

    Well, when Chicago isn't getting rebounds they become very vulnerable. Also, you can't expect Wade and Lebron to play the way they did game 1. Miami made their adjustment, lets see Chicago make theirs.

    I still don't see the Bulls getting past the Heat. But if the Bulls do advance, I think they match-up better with the Mavs than the Heat. With that said, I still think the Mavs are the best team in the playoffs.

    Yeah, defense and rebounding was really the story in this game. The small line-up might have worked against Boston, but I thought a lengthier line-up would have been more productive. Ilgauskas, Haslem, and Dampier didn't even dress for this game, and I don't even think Howard played. If...
