Carlisle changed the way the Mavs were defending. They shut down all penetration and stayed home on the PnR. They stayed in the driving lanes so that neither Lebron nor Wade had an open lane to drive to the basket so all they had left was long jumpers. It was the perfect defense. Spoelstra never adjusted the Heat offense to the change. If you recorded the game watch what the Mav defenders did whenever Lebron or Wade had the ball looking to penetrate at the end of the game. All game the Heat were just jackin shots and making them. Sooner or later they had to cool off. That's why the Heat didn't go to the line that much.

Dallas gave them the long ball. They hit a few, game over.

I like the fact Mavs don't panic and came back.

Miami has TALENT and they win with it plain and simple. I saw it last nite as if it was "Wades nite" and Lebron being a sort of team guy let it flow that way. When they were up 13 He relaxed. Bosh's put back dunk and "Preen Scream" was the apex for them and started their self bravado. They are very confident of themselves.

Its obvious Miami has supreme talent and can win this all on talent alone but this is a team that really does think they already won and are trying to not "lose it". Thats a big difference then being hungry.

How does a team overcome that? Failure!

They might not be executing the coach's game plan. It happens a lot BTW.

Lebron and Wade start taking circus shots and long distance 3's with the lead dwindling. Yea this is bull**** and I hope they get called out on it. Did you see Lebron's reaction when Chalmers made that 3 to tie the game. Dude was like why did you make that?

Dude they straight lost and got several favorable calls tonight. Get real, they chocked in an EPIC fashion. Now they have to hope the Mavs choke even harder


That, or the Refs (or Stern) bail them out so the series can get back to Miami!

? Are you saying they intentionally lost?

Im saying Lebron plays different and when he wants to win. Dude can get whatever shot he wants. The fade aways are circus shots. He can rise over the defender anytime he likes like McGrady used to do.

I find it highly suspect when Wade and Lebron stop putting the ball on the floor and instead settle for fade away 3's.

Oh, OK. I'll give you that. I doubt it was intentional. They probably just thought they had the game already and didn't want to expend energy driving to the basket.

I hate these fookers. Come on Dirk!!! Let's get back into this game!! The bigs, Chandler and Haywood, are really having a bad 2 games right now. They need to force the Fire Nation into taking outside shots.

Chalmers was clutch. That was an amazing pass Lebron made. Easy to see it from our angle but imagine how he saw it and then it unfold. Lebron even in defeat was amazing.

Dirks three was set up by a great screen by Chandler. For all the clutch that Dirk was its the little things that execute and open the door for him to get that open.

Bosh froze. IM sure he was scared of a three pt play but he went right up on him and did not even try to get a charge on him. Why not, they had a foul to give and if Dirk hits the shot and the FT they only down 3 with a few ticks to tie it up.

Conspiricy of a fix? Think Lebron really lets the game go?

Granted, its great for the ratings if the series goes 6 or 7 games but If Im throwing a game its game three not game two.

Im not saying it was a fix. Dallas made a comeback.

The series is structured 2-3-2 so the last 2 games will be played in Miami.

Gif Wade's tip dunk clearly in the cylinder of the rim

Gif Dirk's drive getting fouled going to the hole with no foul shots being rewarded side out

Gif Wade F-Bombing the refs for a no foul call no T

then

Gif Carlisle being T-Up for F-Bombing the refs after Lebron chicken wings Dirk on a drive in the chest.. in which Dirk did foul Lebron


You have nothing.

From the Heat games I've watched this year, I find it amazing that Chris Bosh could actually average 24 PPG on 52% shooting previously.

Wade making some ridiculous shots early on.

Meanwhile, Miami is forced to use a timeout so Bosh can have a quick cry.

Dirk put Wade in a blender...... stepped back off that 1ft and committed a 1rst degree murder on him.


Chandler incredible defensive stand too

Lebron James is a bitch. Dude playing hot potato with the ball passing up shots. I wish Eric Spoelstra would bench his ass.

I hate the Miami Heat
I wish they would just go away & since Dallas is BL_owing their opportunity Big time
by losing game #3 its all but academic.

Unless Dirk Nowitkski gets some help on the scorer end this team isnt going to be
HEAT

Lebron Wade and his team gonna go party soon with NBA title and that should make
most basketball fans sick!
