Wade had 3 assists and 0 turnovers.

I don't see your point. Wade played great, and since Lebron struggled scoring, he was a facilitator.

But LeBron said he was going to attack the rim and be aggressive tonight!

Bill Simmons said it best, it's going to be so awkward when Wade wins Finals MVP...

Skip said Wade is the best player in the NBA when it matters.

To credit Dallas, they have defended LeBron rather well. He sees a double almost everytime he gets the ball in the half court, making him shoot more jumpers....last night he was just off.

I think people look entirely too much into "whos team" it is, they both have showed throughout the season that either have the ability to carry the team. As someone said earlier, who ever is rolling, regarding scoring, let them go.

Yes. The whole point is to try and detract somehow from any title(s) LeBron may win. Well, the thing is that LeBron is never going to be Jordan, Magic, or Bird anyway. And he's already and always going to be better than Pippen. The only thing winning a title is going to do for him right now is take him out of the "best to never win a title" conversation. Whether he's "the man" or not, no one's opinion is going to change as far as where he ranks historically. And as much as everyone wants it to be tainted (if it even happens), obviously LeBron doesn't give a shit about all that either. He went to Miami to win a title. If he gets it, mission accomplished.

Oh and...this series is clearly over. Miami in 5.

The thing is, even though Wade is carrying the Heat during this series, Lebron had carried them during the Chicago series (and even the Boston series to some extent). I remember the one thing everybody kept asking during the Chicago series was: "what is wrong with D-wade?"

How quick we forget...

ESPN brainwashes people. smh

I just think ESPN is a perfect reflection of our reactional society. All of the experts' opinions after last nights games about the more enduring player and team traits were in reaction to last night's game. There was not even a hesitation to the question "who is most important to this Heat team?" They all said D-Wade when, as evident through the entire regular season, playoffs, and game 1 of the finals, D-Wade was not the "most important" player on the team, at least in terms of quantifiable stats and production. I mean, I don't think there is necessarily a correct answer, but the impulsiveness of their answers was most likely the overreaction to the game.

I was wondering the same thing...he's literally acting like he tore his ACL but came back, played on it, and hit the game winning shot. It's a fucking eye poke

So the new reason to hate on the Heat is because "Bron" calls Bosh "CB"? Getting a little desperate?

Not rescuing anything, just find it funny the only thing you can say is that Bosh got poked in the eye. Also, how did he act like he tore his ACL again?
