Official 2011 NBA Finals Thread: Dallas Mavericks are the 2011 NBA Champions. VOL: KidDirk get rings

I see some media people hating on Kidd cause he isn't putting up big numbers. Gotta remind yall - dude is 38 playing 35+ mpg in the playoffs. He's been guarding Lebron tough all series and the series before he was guarding Durant a lot. Dude has to be dead tired and his tonight was TWELVE. Pretty huge for a 3 point game. Clearly his leadership and toughness is doing something. Barea's gotta step it up and let Kidd rest.

You can clearly see that Spoelstra desperately tried to avoid the same scenario as in game 2 by calling a time-out immediately after Terry made two baskets as the Mavs were making a comeback, but it didn't work. It wasn't as big of a collapse as in game 2, but the Heat still blew it. All they had to do is play defense and they would've won. The Mavs even missed some open 3s.

LeBron was bad, but not as bad as some haters want to make it look. He couldn't get it going scoring-wise, but he made some excellent passes. What bothers me the most this game is not him not scoring, but not playing great defense like at the end of game 3. If he did that again, the Heat would've won. Instead he let Terry blow by him. After playing defense like that on Rose, the quickest player in the league, not being able to play better defense on Terry is hard to believe.

Wade has been phenomenal. He really is by far the best shot blocking guard in history. Right now he's clearly the finals MVP. IMO, he's clearly the MVP even if the Mavs win. Nowitzki has been horrible for everything but the first 5% and the last 5% of the game.

Whether they win or lose this series, Miami needs to do everything they can to get Nene/Dalembert. Some say that they also need a point guard, but getting a point guard for them is a microscopic problem compared to their lack of size. It's unbelievable how consistently Tyson Chandler is able to grab offensive rebounds. Surreal that such an advantage can take place in the NBA. Looks like something that could only take place at a high school level where there is one kid who physically outmatches the rest.

In the end, after losing game 2, it was great that they won game 3 and took the home court advantage back. I don't think that the Mavs can win in Miami again.

I'm not a hater but Lebron was terrible.  His two missed free throws, the countless turnovers, his piss poor defense on Terry and Marion, him trying to pass the ball when he's the only viable scoring option on the floor, etc, etc.

Not to mention two of his points came on one of the most egregious flops in the history of the NBA. Dude had SIX legitimate points.

One of these teams gonna score over 100? Has there been a Finals where no team has reach 100 before? Is it ridiculous to say first team to score 100 will win the series?
 
This game wasn't important and us heat fans should know that. Dallas needed that to STAY alive.

We got game 3.

We need game 5.

And We close it in 6.

DONE.

lettuce be cereal

It's the same way when the Mavs win, where's all the Miami fans? No were to be found, just in their caves about to go fishing.

I swear I've never seen anyone ride LeBron like AirFresh, Not even the real Heat fans do it.

You guys don't need game 5. I think it will seal the deal if you guys get game 5. But i can see Miami winning 2 in a row at home, like Lakers last year. Game 5 is a MUST win for Dallas tho
