Why do the Heat always make this difficult? Why can't they just come out and play good basketball like we all know they can? You know... maybe Lebron didn't actually give up when he was playing with Cleveland. Maybe he just legitimately has problems finishing the game at this stage. Long shot, I know, but it's a pattern with his teams that, when it comes down to it, they can be in it but they have problems firmly ending it.

WWLS(OKC's local sports radio station, as you obviously may know) brought this up this morning. According to them, LeBron has been horrible at shooting in the closing minutes in this series, but Wade has been nigh clutch. So there might actually be something to LeBron not being able to actually close out games.

So there might actually be something to LeBron not being able to actually close out games. But it's hard to say that when he nearly single handedly closed out the majority of the Boston and Chicago series. Shawn Marion is doing an amazing job on him in this series. The concerning part is that even with a great defender on him, he isn't attacking. Why isn't he even trying to attack? That's the part that baffles me.

Barea is stroking threes, and LeBron is coming up short on every unnecessary jump shot he takes. Pretty much the story of the last two games.

This game (and possibly series) is over. Miami just doesn't have it this evening and they may not get it back.

For as dominating as it seems the Mavs have been this game, they no where near have the lead they should. Miami can still easily get back in this, IMO.

I wanna say it's 'Damaged Psyche', but I'm pretty sure I'm way off the mark.

LeBron is apparently 2 assists from a triple double, and yet just from watching the game it's like he hasn't played well. Deceptive triple double at best.
*EDIT* and there it is.

Dallas, doing their best Heat impersonation, took their foot off the gas.

Perfectly phrased by Mark Jackson. "LeBron James messed around and got a Triple Double." That's EXACTLY what happened.

The thing that'll bug me with this Miami victory isn't going to be the fact they won because I don't really care. It'll be the knee-jerk media reaction to compare what D-Wade did to people like Willis Reed. That's bulls*** if you are asking me.
