Mavs Defeat the Heat
June 8, 2011
The Heat went up 2 games to 1 over the Dallas Mavericks in their last game. However last night the Mavericks surged from behind and tied the series up defeating the Heat 86-83.
Dirk Nowitzki had a rough night on Tuesday, recovering from a sinus infection. Yet when it came down to the wire at the end he helped lead the Mavericks to go on a 21-9 run in the last 10 minutes of the game. He ended up scoring 21 points and grabbing down 11 big rebounds.
A sweet moment in the eyes of Boston fans, Mavericks held James to 8 points ending his 433 game streak of scoring in double figures. D-Wade scored 32 pts but missed a crucial free throw in the last 30 seconds of the game and fumbled the ball with 6 seconds to go.
This moment in the finals will draw more pressure on the Heat and especially on James, who failed to grab a title with his passed team.
I am sure that Celtics fans across the board would love to see the Heat defeated two more times, bringing a little bit of karma to Miami.
