I lose $75 and I gain a lot of embarrassment if the Heat win.

I still remember the 23057203857 replays of LeBron's gamewinner I had to rewatch every damn pre-game two years ago versus Orlando. "Is this one of the biggest shots in NBA History?!" Ugh.

The world is a better place when the Heat lose

If Rich Hamilton is sent packing do we take him?

He looks to be quite injury prone the past few seasons, and he'll be 33 by the time next years playoffs start.

I really don't think he addresses our major needs (shooters have to be a priority, IMO), but I'd replace him with Brown in a damn hurry if he'd be willing to accept a role off the bench for next to nothing. He wouldn't work at all in our starting lineup, but he'd be the scoring threat that we lack off the bench behind Kobe, that's for damn sure.

I forgot about the Finals game until I turned it on right now, and I tuned in to see JJ Barea on LeBron. LeBron didn't even try to post him, shot over him, and missed.

JJ Barea: 1
LeBron: 0

for som reason Lebron can't even post a yellow sticky post it.

JJ Barea is obviously the most intimidating post defender in the entire NBA.

Damn, that was a nice shot by LeBron. I knew that was going in too.

Wade is an excellent playoff performer. This guy always brings it when he needs to. Not to take anything away from LeBron this game, but Wade has made things happen all game long -- and now his shots are falling.

Why do they keep single covering those guys, just force double teams and make someone else handle the ball.

Dallas missed a ton of wide-open looks tonight. They hit those shots like they did against us in that 2K11 exhibition, Dallas steals this one.

What a pass by Wade!

What a dribbling expo by Wade right there. Wow.

Post #294 » by **Slava** » Wed Jun 1, 2011 3:44 am

Both teams will win road games in this series.

wow.. what a pass!

i had miami in 7, thinking miami in 6 ar most now.

Oh, Dirky.

Dallas could have easily won this. A few mishaps down the stretch that Miami capitalized on.

It doesn't feel like the Finals to be honest. Just another 7-game playoff or season series.

Me neither. And it's not because I'm bitter about the Lakers not making it. There's just this lack of that epic Finals feeling. Kinda how I felt in '07 when Bron-Bron last made it there. I tuned in for bits and pieces of this one, but I just wasn't feeling too hyped about it.

One game guys, Dallas still has a shot if they win Game 2. And Jason Terry doesn't play like buttcrack (equivalent of '08-10 Elton Brand).

But if they lose the next one, it's gonna be tough.

Coach turned back into a pumpkin, I told those fool Mavs fans on the GB I saw signs of deterioration in their role guys. What they did to us was not reality.
