When is Game 1?
Are you going to mistakenly declare the series to be over after game 1

Worst part about all of this is that I'm going to have to listen to Cowherd talk with Brons dick in his mouth tomorrow morning.

Haslem's D on Dirk changed the series in 2006. Not sure he's ready to log those kind of minutes though.

Was just about to say this, Haslem did an unreal job on him. Expect to see Bosh, Haslem and Lebron in crunch time.

LeBron will check Dirk in crunch time or if/when he's really feeling it.

Also, the Dan Gilbert shit is tiring. It happened almost a year ago, let it rest...

Just don;t see Dallas scoring 100+ on Miami.

Mavs in 2.

Heat will forfeit cuz the entire team will run a train on Gloria(including Lebron) and team distention will set in.

Wouldn't mind seeing Dirk get a title but don't see it happening.

Miami in 6.

I'm hoping the Mavs ability to spread the floor with the awsome shooting bench they got will be too much for DWade and he Heat. But the NBA is probably rigged so it doesnt really matter what we think.

The macs match up well with Miami. No one is going to slow down dirk on the heat. I expect a lot of Jason Kidd on lebron. I think almost every game will be close with Dallas winning in 6. The key in this series will be d wade. If he plays like he did in the conference finals the heat will lose. He has to be able to carry the offense at times.

Haslem and LeBron will both slow Dirk down. You can't stop him but you can definitely slow him down.

Heat will win in three, and you can take that to the bank.

Jason Kidd has been matched up with Kobe and even Durant at times.

Yeah. I was pretty surprised to see how well Kidd played defense in the last series. I would expect to see alot of Marion and Stevenson on Judas as well

WKNR had a guy from their sister ESPN station in Miami on this afternoon. This guy from Miami said that Wade & LBJ need to decide to let Bosh be the MVP in this series and they will win. He said the ONLY way, in his opinion, that Miami loses is if Lebron & Wade get into a "I want to be the MVP, no I want to be the MVP" contest to further their "legacy." He felt that would be a detriment to Miami.

Guy was extremely biased in that he really didn't think the Heat had a chance of losing this series. He didn't feel that Dallas' offense posed any threat to Miami and didn't feel their bench players would be a factor.
