Make no mistake about it, im a Lebron fan, but im first and foremost a Lakers fan. I am rooting for the Heat as equally as I’m rooting for the Mav’s because i love Dirk too. Whoever wins I’m happy for them because it’s not the Lakers they’re playing against.

I love the Mav’s continual fight, i absolutely LOVE IT!

The only way this series goes longer than 5 is if the Mavs get some serious home court love from the refs. I would love to see a 7 game series but guys who were dominant against the lakers like Barea and Chandler are looking very average against the Heat defense.

@chargerdillon Your just a big a of fool as all those fake Heat fans saying we were gunna sweep them. These are the two best teams in the NBA, they’re in the finals for a reason. This is going to be a series of epic proportions, hopefully with the Heat winning game seven at home!

The Mavs won because Miami wants to finish this at home for the celebration.

The heat did not get beat last night, they turned off the engines altogether.

This series will be over in 5, no doubt about it. Mark my words, its over in 5

Just another example of how you can never quit on any game. Dallas didn’t quit and Miami relaxed losing the momentum. Doesn’t take long to erase a 15 point lead in basketball. Miami expected Dallas to just mail it in the NBA way in the final quarter. But Dallas kept playing and trying to win and it paid off.

I’m sure the TV execs are jumping for joy now they can have a 7 games series.

Yeah, the refs were not helping the Mavs out. Maybe they did in the first quarter, but I missed that. Later on, I was a bit annoyed at the lack of technicals for Wade. He deserved one for the whining after the call early in the game, when he elbowed Dirk in the chest blatantly, and then when he flung the ball at Terry after a foul.

I’m already rolling my eyes at the parallels people will be drawing between this game and Game 3 of the 2006 Finals. There’s no comparison. Miami shot eight free throws in the last two minutes of that game in what could only charitably be called “help” from the referees. But this game? Dallas earned virtually every point — Terry’s two free throws with five and a half minutes to go were the only ones they shot the entire quarter (Miami had six).

Not a big fan of either team, but these games are shaping up to be an entertaining series. I want Dallas to win though, since the city and players dont have a title, and their window of opportunity is closing. Miami’s big three have plenty of time to win a title. Also, the Mavericks played horribly, not defending and having turnovers, for most of the game, and Miami brought everything they had. I like the Mavericks winning in front of the home crowd, that would be huge. Dallas in 5.

So we’re down the best of 5 with 3 games in Dallas. Excellent – I’ll take it.

Go Mavs

That was just an unbelievable comeback to say the least. I mean, if you thought the Heat comeback against the Bulls was something, then I don’t know what to say about this one. Dirk Nowitzki finally, truly, showed up in the Finals and did what he had been doing all playoffs. This was a huge win for them because I think the series would have been over had they gone down 2-0. We’re in for a treat for the next few games because it’s going to be a battle. First OKC comeback now the Heat. It’s something special we are seeing for sure.

Mavs played great those last 4 minutes of the game and they deserved the win. Anyone who doubted them because of all the blind bandwagon admiration for the heat are just fools. This is going to be an epic series, can’t wait for that Heat win in game 7!
