no I thought he'd play well actually

I do think he's a bit overrated for never having won a ring, but his ability is not overhyped

only problem I have with his game, is he seems to travel so fuckin much, he takes 3 steps like a motherfucker

but then again, Dirk was killin em with the traveling in this series!

Not up to par, but not poor. Wade played worse than LeBron tonight.

I mean, NIK said moments after the decision that this team couldn't win. They weren't deep enough & that's what happened, they lost to a better basketball team.

The Heat had five guys contributing, the Mavs had "The Custodian" playing big minutes for them.

Mike Miller, the projected 4th best player on that team, 4th highest salary (I believe) score zero points tonight, played roughly 4 minutes & I don't even know if he attempted a shot. That's the "sixth man". The Mavs sixth man (Jet), score 27 on like 75% shooting.

For most of you, the way you talked, including professional analysts, the Heat super exceeded expectations this year. They should have won, in my opinion, but they didn't. What are you going to do?

To act like they won't be their next year, is insanity.

knew lebron was gonna choke, nothing new really, thats all he in the playoffs during his stay with the cavs.


wade might of not played better this game, but he damn well played better throughout this series, the playoffs, this whole year.





lol their not deep enough? what more do you need a franchise center and pg also? 


dude cham, no doubt the rest of the roster isnt too great but this is the same talk from when lebron was in the cavs:


during the regular season, their labeled the best team in basketball, and when the time comes and they lose in the playoffs "their not deep enough"


this is ridiculous is that gonna be lebrons excuse every year he doesnt get one? lol i mean rose was going on a run without any low post presence, something thats pretty hard to achieve.


lol and the "heats" lack of low post presence as an excuse is a joke. they have 3 top nba players all franchise players with that being top 3 in their own respectable positions and arguably the top 10 in the league.


counting just lebron and wade thye have 2 of the top 5 in the league right, they have no excuses period. just like the lakers.

Same shit, different year ?

I really thought he was on a roll, when he was completely beasting against Boston and Chicago. But again, when it most counted, he was nowhere to be seen.

I hope this throws out the arguments of "there's no such thing as clutch". C'mon.

LOL, what? LeBron brought Wade here & Wade took over, no doubt.

& LOL, what? You're one of the people who said they "couldn't" win this year. I did not once say he needed more depth, you guys did & I suppose you're right.

But then again, you all said the Lakers would win & they lost to the same team the Heat did. You guys should be the first to say the Mavs are just a really good team.

I think this pretty much says it all.

Quote
LeBron James and Dwayne Wade were the 55th and 56th players in NBA history to play in the NBA Finals following a regular season in which they averaged at least 25 points per game. Although Wade scored in the Finals (26.5 points per game) at a slightly higher rate that he had during the regular season (25.5), James's scoring average fell from 26.7 points per game during the season to 17.8 during the Finals.

James, however, was not merely the 27th of those 56 players (who had averaged at least 25 points during the regular season) whose scoring average in the Finals fell short of his regular-season average, but LeBron's scoring decline, by 8.9 points, was the largest such decline by any 25-point scorer in NBA history. The largest previous decline by any of those 56 players was by Wilt Chamberlain with the San Francisco Warriors. After averaging 36.9 points per game in the 1963-1964 regular season, he averaged 29.2 points in the 1964 Finals against Bill Russell and the Celtics. No other player had a decline as large as six points per game.

they couldnt, and they didnt.  when i said they needed "depth" is that these "3" are not as talented enough as everyone labels them. like i said previously with 3 of the top 10 palyers and 2 of top 5 players in the nba thats no excuse.  thats like if karl malone joined the bulls with scottie pippin and jordon, if t-mac and kg joined kobe.

u think those 3 would of lost? no period. thats what i ment when they needed more depth. that their sorry asses need more. which is completely ridiculous.


they had more than enough depth but they still couldnt do it for players of their "caliber" but obviously their not. i never really thought lebrons draft class was better than kobes.




yea i knew mavs were gonna take it all after they beat the lakers. and thats that.


the thing is from the BEGINNING i was against lebron going to miami with bosh, the thing is why the fuck would you have 2 major ball handlers  who are 2 horrible shooters. i never knew that and it shows in crunch time when they need a clutch 3 or J and they just completely brick it. bosh is a better shooter than both of them.

All the Lebron hate has gone too far.   He ethered the Lebron haters last night when he said that quote about them going back to their life and him going back to his.   That shit was the truth.  But people are too caught up in their bandwagon hatred of Lebron to realize it.

I'm not a Lebron fan, and my only beef with Lebron was just that I love Jordan and I don't like anyone being compared to Jordan.  But this shit has gone too far now.  Lebron did the best he could do against a great defensive team that was well coached and had a great scheme against him.  Enough said.

You know what I gt from this series?

-Bball, and sports in general, are over analyzed
-everyone involved in sports is too reactionary
-Bron needs to grow up
-Spoelstra is not a good coach, and never did get a set rotation down
-Dirk is the shit; dude IS clutch, but didnt play all that well in game 6
-Chalmers is a baller


And for the record, D wade didn't do shit i games 5 and 6; this isn't solely Brons fault.  But guess what? Miami DID get to the finals despite MANY flaws and mistakes; they were better than 28 teams and there is no reason to think they won't be back.
