2006 NBA Finals - Heat vs Mavs

does anyone think that if Zo gets this ring it will justify him to be in the HOF? I mean he'll go down as an NBA Legend and I think he made big contributions to the game and while his ailments stopped him from being one of the elite big men of all-time his heart and courage ranks him among some of the greatest players in all history. Not to mention his honours such as being a 7-time all-star, repeat defensive poy and all-nba 1st team, olympic team and top 10 shot-blockers in history.

As I've told ya many times before, Jimbo, he will more than likely make the HOF. Although no-one can guarantee a great player will make the HOF, he will eventually get inducted when he retires (with or without a ring - like Barkley, Stockton & Malone).
 
Oh yeah, I'm predicting a Heat victory. 1-1 after 2 games in Dallas, followed by 3 home victories for 4-1.

My MVP would be Wade (but if Mavs do win, Dirk will get it).

PS - No foreigner will win MVP of a losing Finals team. I mean Yao Ming couldn't get ROY, and he had a better year than Stoudemire. Wasn't Gasol also overlooked for ROY???
 
Man we gotta wait for friday for game 1

Antoine walker must be practicing his shimmy in front of the mirror

He should practice sitting on the bench after Dirk lands him on the pine with his 3rd PF 2mins into game 1

Go dirk burn those second string Miami Forwards!!

I reckon it simply MIami 4-1 coz dallas just so crap LOL .... nah they dont have the best defense. They always hope Dirk will play good but .... HE Aint no GOD!!! Shaq - Wade the best tandem in NBA!!!!! and its time for the HEAT and its players to win the game!!!


Got some great reasons there why Miami should win.... PFFT.... =D>

Who said that the Mavs couldnt beat TD & Spurs? Who said the Suns would CREAM the Mavs??? So many haters.... :shock:

It's the first time in Franchise HISTORY the Mavs have made it to the NBA Finals, and you wanna say they're crap??? [-X

Mavs can win this for sure. Diop & Damp can defend Shaq to a limit, as with ANY big man in the league. See "BIG" Ben VS Shaq = OWNED... Shaq had his way. Wade is the difference maker, but so is Dirkinator!!! Who ever has the better games of these two, will determine the outcome......

it's the mav's series to win or lose

That's up there with white_chocs call a few weeks ago with.... "don't be suprised if either team wins it"!! LOL :p ;)

both teams have played some awesome ball to get to where they are now and either team when they are on their game can run rings around the other!!

both teams have the potential (and the possible fairytale ending) to win it?!?:)

Well it did take them 26 years to get there Scotty ;) Nah jk, it's great for both teams. I really want the Heat to win but I wouldn't be that upset if the Mavs pull it off. I've grown to like the Mavs this season and I rate Howard and Nowitzki as one of the best tandems in the league. The Mavs are something like 25-0 when Howard scores more than 20. I can't wait. Go Heat!

Here's a cool story about how the Mavericks made it.
 
i dunno why im typing this it was going through my mind for no reason lol...just so everyone knows this NBA Finals with be a Texas team vs a Florida team.........the last time that happen wasssss ;) the 1995 NBA Finals - Magic vs Rockets..4-0.......can history repeat itself? or will it go the distance? hmm (also amazing this is shaq's 6th NBA Finals with his third team in the NBA...fantastic stuff)
 
I know of at least 4 times a shaq team has been swept from the playoffs

magic vs pacers
Magic vs bulls
Magic vs rockets
Lakers vs Jazz

could happen

yes but look at what year they where, and look at the quality teams he bowed out against at such a young age...

magic vs pacers.. 1994 if i recall correctly.. that pacers team was right up there
magic vs bulls..1996 - jordan/pippen + bulls 72 game win that year
magic vs rockets 1995 - dream + clyde and an on fire horry/cassell and an all but dead anderson/scott
lakers vs jazz - 1998 - a pretty useless come playoffs kobe (airballs) and a young lakers squad against malone and the jazz at their peak
lakers vs spurs- 1999 - Duncan/Robinson on a mission against the same lakers team the jazz swept

That's the whole time in shaqs career that they've been swept... I dont think the mavs will sweep them.. i think they're "close" to lucky to be in the finals.. we'll see.. i just dont see an answer for shaq/wade coming from the mavs, unless those players shut themselves down..
