Wade is an absolute monster. So may dunks against a great defensive team. Fantastic defensive presence too

I never thought I'd see that franchise make a dumber move than drafting Darko

Hate the guy but he's been great this series. If Lebron was playing to his ability this wouldn't even be a contest. Thankfully he isn't and the Mavs seem to keep pulling out miracles.
I've been impressed by Tyson Chandler's play. All hustle and heart, all the time. He had a few lapses last night (overhelping, not boxing out) but I really think he kept Dallas in the game.

Chandler is a guy who very easily could have turned into a bust coming out of HS. He was pretty raw and had a tough time adjusting but he carved out a niche for himself, worked hard, and now he's one of the key pieces of the Mavs squad. His play in the finals has been very good so far.
Kidd has the features of a black dude with lily-white skin. At the risk of sounding a bit racist, it's an unfortunate mix for him, as the world tends to fall in love with the exact opposite.
Not to mention Darko and Adam Morrison.

this has been really entertaining basketball. not perfect, but really hard-fought and basically well-played. this is the second game in a row that carlisle has gone to a zone for a run in the fourth quarter and it has totally futzed miami's offense. last night he sprung it, got a nice run, went back to man before they could adjust, then closed in a zone again. very smart coaching. and i liked the way he used an obviously ailing nowitzki ... running him in 3-4 minute sprints, then giving me a blow. all 4 games it's looked like dallas has been out of it and the last three, they've battled back (aaargh! in all three cases spurred by that obnoxious jason terry).

This. Should have been a sweep as I predicted. Stern is drawing it out for revenue.

As much as I hate to say it, Wade is almost the perfect NBA player. He's almost unguardable on offense (hits long shots, attacks the rim) and is perhaps the best defensive 2 guard in the history of the game (did you see him stuff Chandler's shot last night?).
Yeah, Stern is so incredibly smart: he knew that sending his minion, disguised as a reporter, to goad LeBron about "shirking his responsibilities" would thereby cause Bron to get all funked up and petulant and go exactly 3-11, thereby causing Dirk to catch a fever and miss a bunch of shots, thereby causing Carlisle to sub in Brian Cardinal, thereby causing Dirk to get pissed and go for a lay-up early in the shot clock, thereby causing DWade to go for a dunk, thereby causing the Heat to foul Terry, thereby causing Terry to go 2-2, thereby causing DWade to fumble an inbounds pass, thereby causing Mike Miller to heave up a prayer and miss, thereby causing the series to go for at least 6 games. Really genius, Stern is.
All this and his rebounding as well.
Stern is an evil genius, isn't he?
Best rebounding small in the NBA? Might be.
As for Terry's nickname, no one in Dallas cares what people in Houston think.
