Since the 2-3-2 Finals format started, when the series is tied 1-1, the Game 3 winner wins theevery time. It's a safe bet.

dirk only started to light up in the 4th quarter getting to the ft automatic, first 3 quarters he was only sent to the line 4 times....
terry and marion need to step up and hit shots then pulling stupid jumpers....
late in the 4th why did they go away from the PNR...

Except for Terry... Dirk almost had no help at all.
that's what I'm saying why would you bet for a team that's trailing 2-1 and is on the wrong side of the stats?![]()

If the other starters play up to snuff, the Mavs win this game easily.
oh well good win by Miami...to bad LeBron James is probably not going to win the MVP award...Cavs fans will unfortunately have comfort in that, at least
Mavs were +12 in Dirks 42 minutes. -14 in the 6 minutes he rested.
As I thought, Haywood being out hurt Dallas. That stretch of Mahinmi being in was brutal.
carlisle has made sa bad decisions sitting dirk when they tied the game or momentum in their favor. When you have the momentum, don't sit your superstar and go for the lead,imo.
Oh yeah- except on the scoreboard.
Chandler was never in foul trouble. With the increased amount of TO's in the playoffs, and the increased length of those TO's it's assinine for Chandler not to play the entire 48 minutes.
How JJ managed 4 TO's in under 20 minutes I don't know.
Ditto with Pejas -11 in 6 minutes.
If Marion could make a layup tonight, we might have come away with this game.
agree, haywood played well the first 2 games
lol peja subs uted in for a big shot![]()
Cubby, I told you no reason to worry.![]()
dirk's last minute was just horrible tbqh, lol passing the ball to the commentators![]()
series far from done though, mavs only 1 game down and they have 4 games possible to fix things up. just never lose yo faith s, we ain't never givin up. nobody is gonna close us out, NOBODY
All of the calls went the Mavs way but they wasted it with stupid, bumbling turnovers. Including Dirk's on the next to last possession.
I still don't understand why Dirk didn't try to draw the foul on the last shot- or take it to the hoop & force the refs to make a call. God knows he'd been getting the calls most of the night.
That fadeaway has been so automatic for him, but still, you're completely right.
outside of Dirk, the team shot 25%. I don't know how it was even close.
Wow! But I guess that's what it felt like while watching the game.
don't wanna admit it but the refs were doing a fine job in this series imo, slightly favoring the mavs even. can't blame the officiating imo, we had the chance to win but we omitted it, mavs just fated to be ringless forever imho.
I've also got to question Carisles decision to go with JJ early in the 3rd instead of Stevenson. I don't know what hes seen from JJ this series they made him think that was a good move, but it cost us.
still soft minds imho, heat be the only true contest dem mavs confronted, softness be exposed again no different than dat 06' finals. however i still believe the mavs can win one game more before the heat close things up. heat in 6
