Heat vs Mavs. Which team do you think will win?

 

 

 

Discuss! :P

 

 

 

E.D.I.T

 

 

 

WOOT! Congrats to Miami Heat who won the NBA Finals. They are the champs!

 

 

 

Also congrats to Dwyane Wade, who of course got the Finals MVP.

 

 

 

A round of applause to them! =D> =D> =D>

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dallas in 6, Shaq's tired, Dw's sick. Dirk will go nuts during the series.

My heart wants the heat to win but my brain tells me that the Mavs are gonna beat them :(

I think Josh Howard will be the X-factor. He's been playing great as of late and he could be a match for DWade.

I think the Mavs will win. If they have a great second quarter like they did before (down by 18 to be ahead by 13 in 1.5 quarters????) then there's no way they'll lose.

 

 

 

Shaq's good but not invincible. Just stay out of foul trouble and they'll be fine. Like azn said, Josh Howard guarding Wade should be quite interesting. :)

Mavs will win. I don't like shaq's style of play. It's pretty cheap and can't admit to being blocked.

I'm a Heat fan for life, Shaq wants it to damn bad to let this slip away. He's been dominate in the post, he killed the Pistons in game 6, Dwade was sick and still put on a show to stomp Detroit. Jwill played his best game ever with 20 points, 10 of 12 shooting and 6 assits. The supporting cast did their job well and should carry on in the finals.

 

 

 

Lets face it the Heat are a new team, their playing with their hearts. I say Heat in 6.

 

 

 

Lets look at the factors though. They're stories going around that Cuban's got the refs around his finger, we've all seen the BS calls going in Dirks favour so thats a huge factor for us.

 

 

 

I'm hoping to see the heat win this, Payton, Zo, and Walker deserve a ring so damn bad. Zo has given everything he's got for this team, he deserves it more than anyone in the NBA.

 

 

 

LETS GO HEAT!!!!!

Yeah..i pretty much agree with everything you say..although Dwade is sick, he still can do great. This is heat's first time in to get in to NBA finals, i think they will do great and beat the mavs. Yeah, i say heat over mavs in 6. 8-)

 

 

 

GO MIAMI HEAT!!

Go DALLAS

 

Dallas has to win

I would say Dallasl, I just don't think you can stop Dirk, he is playing outrageously good right now and with Josh Howard playing so well. I would say that Dallas has the edge. I think D-Wade will be amazing, but I dont' think the other players will step up. Also Shaq is to out of shape to keep up with the fast paced Mavs.

Dallas, Miami beat my detroit pistons so im pulling for dallas. Anyways Shaq is an old geezer :lol:

Go mavs@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ :wink:

def want Heat but i dunno

 

And whoever says Shaq is to 'out of shape' to keep up wit Dallas is crazy but its ok im cool wit Utah :lol:

heat. Wade will be better. Shaq will step up. Series score 4 to 2 in favor of miami.

when are the next games?

Cheering for Miami but I know Dallas will win. DW's definitely gonna impede the team with his flu, Shaq's not too great recently, Nowitzki's on fire (did you see that game against the Suns when he hit off 50 points? omg...) Jason Williams... no thanks

when are the next games?

I just think that people give the Heat too much credit for beating the Pistons. Detroit wasnt even playing nearly as good as they did in the regular season. If they had, Miami would have been history. Also for those of you that watch ESPN or Sports Center, they are making Wades sickness in game 6 against the Pistons out to be some huge thing. If he was really truly sick and had to be at the hospital, there is no way he would have the energy or willpower to play. At that, he didnt even play that well either. I still would much rather Shaq win the championship than Kobe. But still, I think Miami will win even though Ill be rooting for Dallas.

I may agree with that sometimes, but did you see Miami's Game 6? Shaq and Williams at their finest :P

Dallas in 6, Shaq's tired, Dw's sick. Dirk will go nuts during the series.

 

 

 

Hes had like 5-6 days of rest by time Game 1 starts :shock:

Miami wasnt even playing good in the regular season,so they didnt get enough credit.This team was built for the Finals.With Old Shaq back,Wade rising to stardom,role player filling in their roles+1 and Riley's experience,Heat will win this in 5.

tonight is game 1 in Dallas

Go Mavs they can hack a shaq easily

i dont care who wins this time becausee none of my fav teams r in. :cry:

clean sweep for Dallas this time. Heat lost it in the 2nd period (I watched it -.-) went from 70% shoot avg in 1st period to about 44% in second. Shaq only scored 17 points and Dallas took it 91-78. Miami had terrible free-throw shooting and definitely Williams, who's normally a fabulous player (yes, I did watch that game 6, the entire first period where Williams just dropped the ball in time after time till eventually I got bored cuz nobody else was doing much :P) but wasn't exactly shining in Dallas-Heat Game 1.
