Jerry Recco worked through multiple distractions and went on to deliver a fantastic update on Monday, highlighted by the Dallas Mavericks being crowned NBA Champions in South Beach.
The Dallas Mavericks beat the Heat last night in Miami 105-95. By doing so, they captured the franchise's first ever NBA championship. Dirk Nowitzki was named the NBA Finals MVP and LeBron James' image took a huge, huge hit.
Jason Terry scored 27 points, Nowitzki added 21 and the Mavericks topped the Miami Heat 105-95 in Game 6 of the NBA finals on Sunday night. The Mavericks won four of the series' last five games, a turnabout that could not have been sweeter after seeing the Heat celebrate their first title in Dallas after Game 6 of the 2006 finals.
Dirk Nowitzki said Saturday that Dwyane Wade and LeBron James were "a little childish, a little ignorant" in a video that appears to show them mocking the Mavericks star's recent illness.
"I wouldn't say it's too much. I don't think so," James said. "I don't feel like I'm hurting my team for the time I'm out there. I don't feel like it's too much."
The time was bound to come when LeBron James would have to step back into the spotlight to help the Heat win. It came last night when Dwyane Wade injured his hip. It was his moment, and he didn't seize it.
Dirk Nowitzki waited five long years for that elusive third victory over Miami, yet there was only a short celebration when it finally came. He briefly thrust both arms in the air, a sea of blue screaming around him, but then quickly walked off the floor.
LeBron James spoke before Game 5 of the NBA Finals and with the Series tied at 2-2, the self-anointed "King" declared last night's game in Dallas as a "now or never" game.
The NBA Finals are down to a three-game series, with the final two in Miami. One trend is abundantly clear: these two teams are so close in talent level that these games are going to be very, very close.
Tonight, with the series tied at two games apiece, the Heat and the Mavericks will do battle in Dallas with all eyes on the self-proclaimed "King" LeBron James.
What's LeBron James thinking? The better question might be: "Is LeBron thinking?"
Is there any way we can write David Stern and have this NBA Finals extended to a nine game series? How about eleven?
LeBron James was leaning against a wall outside the Miami Heat locker room on Tuesday morning, talking about how he believes his personal statistics do not matter. This one did.
In the first inning of last night's loss, Jon Lester hit Mark Teixeira and Russell Martin. To Craig's dismay, the Yankees failed to retaliate.
Sometimes the NBA is complicated. Other times it's simple. This is one of those simple times. If the Mavericks want to make any sort of run in this series, they'll need to shoot the ball better.
Bosh made a 16-foot, go-ahead jumper from the baseline with 39.6 seconds left and Haslem pestered Dirk Nowitzki the rest of the way as the Heat held on for an 88-86 victory over the Dallas Mavericks.
We're going to find something out about the Heat, now that they are facing some true adversity for the first time in the playoffs. Will they come together like a team or will their stars all try to be heroes?
Dwyane Wade and LeBron James were rejoicing for the entirety of their walk from the Dallas bench to the Miami bench. Heat players spilled onto the floor, many with fists in the air. Miami 88, Dallas 73, 7:14 remaining. Game over, right? Not a chance.
I wouldn't worry much about Dirk Nowitzki's bad finger on his left hand. It shouldn't affect his shooting much -- but if it does the series is as good as over.
The Mavericks blew a golden opportunity to steal a game on the Heat's home court in Game 1, something I would usually consider an early death knell for a team trying for an upset. But I saw enough to give me confidence -- Dallas can still win this series.
Dwyane Wade offered LeBron James congratulations for finally getting his first win in an NBA finals game. The Heat are three wins from a much bigger celebration. And not only were the Dallas Mavericks beaten, their best player left battered as well.
After all the assists, steals, 3-pointers and triple-doubles, former Nets guard Jason Kidd has an easier path to his next entry in the NBA record book. All he has to do is show up.
The Mavericks and Heat have taken two very different paths to the NBA finals. Watching whether Dallas' smarts and teamwork can overcome Miami's physical gifts will be fascinating.
