It'll be a fun Finals. I see the Mavs in 7 games. While Mami does have a star at nearly every position, I feel that Wade can be contained (hopefully), Haslem will be Shut down, and Shaq will run wild on Dampier and Van Horn.

Good thing you said hopefully, because Wade can't and won't be contained. Mavs don't match up well against Heat. Where you only have Dirk for their high scorer, you have Wade and Shaq for Miami. And also the simple fact that Miami's role players are playing well, it's over for the mavs. No body on mavs can stop Shaq and no one on that team will shut down D. Wade. Heat in 7.:bb3:

So are you a hater because of the guy in your Avy made a stupid choice by getting rid of shaq or do you hate him because he is the most dominite force in the NBA?:think:

I see the mav's taking it in 6 games at the most. Howard will slow down wade he has slowed down parker and nash, neither are shabby players. The mav's have a way deeper bench, faster team and play better defense. In the regular season dallas destroyed the heat both times they played. Shaq will get into foul trouble just by the way dallas likes to go to the hoop. Who on the heat will be able to handle dirk, howard, terry, and harris all on the floor at the same time? Remember this if shaq gets into foul trouble early that is when the game will be over for miami.

Howard WILL contain Wade, sorry, it is a simple fact. The Heat don't match up well against Big D, haven't all year genius. Only Dirk, have you even watched the NBA this year, let alone the playoffs??
We contained Duncan, Shaq is no longer on his playing field....
Go ahead and start :whiner:

Hey brotha, Bill Walton circa 1998-2002/3 called, he wants his catch phrase back:lol: Please try to live in the present. Shaq is old and tired....this is his final attempt at one last hurrah
BTW, I would tend to believe that an NBA star, Paul Pierce, and a former pro and top analyst for ESPN, Greg Anthony, would know more than you on the hardest matchup in the NBA....Dirk Novitsky. He presents the greatest problems of any player in the league. Get a speedy defender on him, and he will post em up. Put a big man on him and he blows by them...give him space and he drains the three.....series over

I'll take mavs in 6. I hate shaq, dallas has more depth on the bench and Dirk is learning that when he wants to he can control the game(if you need proof watch highlights from game 5 of mav/suns series).

ROTFL! Howard will contain Wade? ROTFL! You think because you watched the Heat lose to them during the regular season by 20, may I add that they didn't have Shaq, but you think it's gonna be a cake walk because of that. ROTFL! Shaq is no longer on his playing field?!? ROTFLZ. Your whole post makes no sense.

I rather have experience than noobies. LOL and if you haven' been paying attention which you haven't the role players(vets) have stepped up their game.
I know you wouldn't understand anything anyways. Looking at your avy, I see why you are a shaq hater. Poor Kobe mad because he made a mistake geting rid of shaq. Bad thing about Kobe still won't make it anywhere next year when/if they get Garnett, they still won't win.

He's old and tired but still hitting up teams for 20pts or so.
LOL because NBA star says something and a former pro says something it's automatically true? LOL so if they told you to go jump off a bridge and you would live you would probably do that as well wouldn't you?

Kid, you are a joke. Josh Howard plays D like a young Scottie Pippen, probably better. Wade, despite his greatness, still is young and asking him to carry a team in the finals is a bit much at his age. And make no mistake, he will be carrying them if they have any chance to make it a 5 or 6 game series...And my reference to Anthony and Pierce....only saying their opinion means a helluva lot more than your no talent ass clown opinion:FUfinger:

You know nothing about me so I wouldn't say things that don't hold true. STFU and just watch how the series pans out. You and your boy showing some real maturity. LOL calling me names and you are the one trying to be an e-thug.
BTW, you can't shutdown superstars(Wade). Mix in a f***in clue.

Oh come on, don't take this shiyat so personally man....people are always passionate about their teams...so I will just sit down and STFU like a good little boy (btw, I would love to see you make me :thumbsup: , just fvcking with ya)
I agree, It is hard to legitimatly shut down a superstar...but their roles, effectiveness and usage can be managed to some extent based on the players, packages, and defensive schemes thrown at them. The more I think about it, I feel 5 games. Understand also that I do not dislike the Heat, but you are talking with someone born and bread in DFW for 25 yrs...don't even get me started on America's Team. This yr, I will be forced to cheer for my least fav player in the NFL, TO:frustrate

Heat in 6 or 7. I have a strong feeling that Shaq will have to be finals mvp for them to win.

The same applies to nearly every other team in the leauge. Every team has 3 bumbs that can run out there and give fouls. Hack a shack has worked with marinal success.

lets not polarize things unecessarrilly. I respect the Mavs. They are a great team. Nowitzki is a beast. I wouldn't put it ahead of them to win the series. I'm rooting for Miami though.

i just don't see it. If the heat was playing the spurs no one would give the heat a chance. Dallas can play D and just like duncan shaq will get his numbers but i bet you wade won't be getting superstar numbers every game. I don't think anyone can argue that dallas has the better offense. Just look at the stats. Miami hasn't played anyone with an offense like the suns or dallas. If it becomes a shooting match dallas will win. I also believe dallas has the better defense, combine that will an explosive offense and you have Dallas winning in 6. I wouldn't put a sweep out of the question either.

I think Wade will get his points as will Dirk will. To me the key will be how well the role players play. That will determine the outcome. I still think the Heat are peaking at the right time going against the Mavs, but at the same time, Mavs are playing well as well. It's goin g to be a great series.
