Great Game - Mavs Fight Back to Tie Series at 2-2; Lebron a No Show

Last night was perhaps one of the best NBA finals game since the Michael Jordan era when every team fought for a win. The Dallas Mavericks and the Miami Heat were locked into an epic battle, with bodies flying all over the court, players fighting for every loose ball and playing the best defence I have seen in an NBA finals in a very long time.

With Dallas winning the game and the series now tied at 2-2, it is anybody's finals and I can really see these series going to game 7. This is perhaps the best NBA finals in year, with every game so far being as close as it can.

Here is a quick recap of the game:
  • Dirk Nowitzki played with a 102 fever in the Dallas win.
  • Dallas finally got some good performances from Terry, Chandler and Barrea
  • Dallas was down 9 points in the fourth and came back to win with great defence holding Miami to zero points over a 5 minute span
  • Wade and Bosh both had great games
  • Lebron failed to show up again in a big game as he had his worst performance in the playoffs and was non-existant in the fourth
  • Wade missed a free-throw that could have tied the game down in the last minute of the game
With the ever critical game 5 being played in Dallas, I am looking forward to seeing how both teams come out. Look out for another great game!
