Too much emphasis is put on LeBron James and the Miami Heat's potential NBA Finals failure. We should also look at how successful the Dallas Mavericks have been on the floor. Also, this series is not over by any means.
Obviously, the Heat have no choice but to win Game 6. Just because Dallas won the last two games, does not mean Miami is finished. The 2-3-2 format implemented only for the NBA Finals (thanks to the extra travel the Lakers and Celtics made in the 80s) could actually be an even greater home-court advantage.
Do you remember last year when the Celtics were up 3-2 at this point? They had to win one on the road. And didn't. I'm not suggesting a road win for the Mavericks to close out the series is an impossible task, but it certainly is not easy. And both teams know what is on the line Sunday night.
Dirk baby!!! Lebron aint got no game, no 4th quarter!
