Dallas World Champions


Dallas defeated Miami in game six to win the 2011 NBA Finals. Just like I predicted that they would win in six. The Mavs played with more heart and more hustle. It is nice to see such a team as the Heat to get humbled. Wade and LeBron had nothing good to say to Dirk the whole series. Dirk did not react back with words but rather did his talking on the court.

Dirk Nowitzki was named the 2011 NBA Finals MVP. He had so many clutch performances in the playoffs including tonight. Dirk had an amazing second half. Nowitzki was just 1-12 at halftime. Dirk finished the game with 26 points. Jason Terry and Shawn Marion had an outstanding series helping Dallas to win it all for the first time in franchise history.

NBA Finals: Game 3

The NBA Finals is all tied up at 1-1 going into game 3. Dirk and the rest of the Mavs battled back for a win in game two. For the team and the Dallas fans, they are hoping to win at least two out of three. If Dallas wins two at home they will have no problem stealing one more in Miami to win the NBA Finals.

Game three will be played in Dallas. The fans in Dallas have not been known for there loudness and intensity during games, not even close games. Yes, the fans were going crazy when they were beating the two time defending champs by 30 points. However, they were walking around watching other things during the series against the Thunder.

The Heat will lose tonight, but it will not be a part of home court advantage. Dallas will win a close one tonight to take a 2-1 advantage on this series.

Shaq Retires

The superstar basketball player Shaquille O'Neal retired today. He retired in a very odd way, via twitter. He posted a short video thanking his fans for supporting him through his career. Shaq won four NBA Titles, one with the Heat and three with the Lakers. Shaq will be remembered as one of the most entertaining players to watch in NBA history.

Dirk Nowitzki Injury


Dallas star Dirk Nowitzki has come down with an injury. This adds on to the loss last night. Dirk's finger is not broken but he has torn a ligament in his middle finger. Dirk said "it was just a freak play" when he and Bosh both went after a loose ball. Dirk said he was alright but that would explain his poor shooting.

Dirk is set to play the rest of this series with an injured finger. He will need to find another way to score points to help out his team overcome the explosive offense of Miami. Dirk is a tough guy, but if it will help the team to sit him on the bench, I do not see why you wouldn't.

NBA Finals: Game 2


Game two of the NBA Finals will be played tonight in Miami. Dallas will have to find a way to shoot the ball better, and make open shots. As for the Heat, just keep doing what your doing and you will win this series.

Game two is such a crucial game in this series. If Miami wins game two to go up 2-0 there is no change of Dallas winning this series. I am going to stay with my pick that Dallas will win this series. Dallas will overcome the poor shooting and the injury of Dirk Nowitzki. Miami, shot excellent in game one and will need to do the same thing in game two. If Miami gets hot, if the big three are on there best game like they were in game one, Dallas will lose again.

The Dallas defense will step up in game two, and the offense will prove to be too much for Miami. Dallas will win game two 98-90, to tie this series up 1-1.
