...Since going to the 2-3-2 format 11 of the 11 teams that have won game 3 in a series tied 1-1 has gone on to win the NBA Finals. Furthermore, the team that wins game one goes on to win the NBA Finals 73% of the time. Not to mention, overall the Miami Heat are out playing the Dallas Mavericks for about 40 minutes each game. I still have an inclination that the Mavericks will win this series, or at least push it to seven games. Take game 2 for example; I all but fell asleep, as did most of the country because the Mavs were getting pounded by 20 late. During my slumber they found a way to battle back with gritty defense, help from their bench, and a red-hot Dirk Nowitzki. Miami is good but they are not great yet and they have shown that they can take their foot off the pedal. So, before we write off Dallas lets remember this is a 7 game series and it might take all 7 games to tell us who the better basketball team is.
