don't get me wrong, dallas played an incredible stretch of ball at the end to snatch that game away

you can't tell me miami didn't do their absolute best to hand them that game. they dangled out a chicken thigh with some troy landry special sauce on it

Miami ran pick and roll with Lebron and Wade, and Kidd and Marion were switching instead of chasing after their assignments. Their pick and roll defense was excellent down the stretch and deserves a ton of credit.

i don't recall a possession where they even ran a pick and roll after lebron missed that layup

someone posted a stat showing 8 of their last 11 shots were 3 pointers

Tell me one thing I EVER said that wasn't rational, and filled with logic and reason. Go for it.

Shel would take a bullit for James

And you'd be the one taking the shot.

It's hilarious to hear guys like you try to call out guys like me when you do the exact same thing, just on the other end of the debate. But, in fact, you're even worse, cause you're rarely giving any actual substance, just spewing hate.

But yea, you're blinded by hate and don't see that.

I didnt see much Wade/Lebron pick and roll late.

I saw Lebron/Bosh, Lebron/Chalmers and Wade 1 on 1

I get pulled into these arguments for no reason at this point. I never got into any kind of argument regarding Lebron, how good he is, or whether he's "clutch" tonight. I've just been trying to talk about the game. Just when I thought I was out....they pull me back in.

i didn't recall that being off a pick and roll

their halfcourt offense is most effective with wade or lebron coming straight off a screen, catching the ball, and taking it to the rack

maybe that's what it was, i changed it so i can't rewind it.

either way, there was a switch between marion and kidd that frustrated wade, which forced him to take that 3. their defense down the stretch was great, and to say that it wasn't is just wrong. the mavs d and hustle overall is what won the game.

I don't think it was late in the shot clock, and Wade was wide open, which also means he could have put it on the floor and gone to the rim.

Being content to shoot 3s killed Miami.

I have to wonder how this affects Miami mentally going forward.
