Where there is a Will, there is a Wade...
Ladies & Gentlemen....the Miami Heat have become only the 2nd team (after the Detroit Pistons of 2004) to win all 3 games at home since the NBA finals went to a 2-3-2 format.
From: farlane
The main difference in those 3 games: D-Wade averaged more than 30 points per game. Transcendent was the adjective one blog used. The Heat now lead the series 3-2. Who would have thought it after they were down 0-2 just a week ago. Many thought they would get swept at that point. When game 3 looked all but over, I still watched through to the last minute and boy, what a surprise I got. And now here we are. However, a tougher task lies ahead of them. They must win one more game, and it MUST be in Dallas. Sounds easy right now after the won 3 straight, right? Well, they haven't beaten the Mavs IN Dallas in the last 4 years! So, whatever they have accomplished now (as much of a miracle as it may seem) was only taking care of what they absolutely needed to (and that was to win at home) after being down 0-2. I think they should be able to win the Finals now though. However, I disagree with the fact that the Heat have the momentum now. First of all, Dallas is going back home. Secondly, Stackhouse will be back for game 6. Third, with DJ back as a third center, the Mavs now have 18 fouls to give on Shaq. If anything, it becomes harder now for the Heat.
The unsung hero of the series for Miami so far- Udonis Haslem. I believe this guy is to the Miami Heat team what Ben Wallace is to the pistons fans. He brings a lot of energy with him and his hustle keeps us in the game at vital moments. He rebounds very well, and has kept Dirk in check. His offensive shooting percentage is his only down-fall, but I will overlook that at most points for his effort and energy. The Heat must stick to their team-playing ways if they are to win at Dallas. Regardless of how many people thing the Miami Heat are a one man team in D-Wade so far, I disagree. Every player is VITAL. D-wade just happens to be the best of them. :) On that note, apparently Dwyane Wade has a song titled Flash (his nickname) after him. Well, it's late so that's it for now...Latooor.
