Well

the better team won end of story...the refs sucked yes but our MVP was a no show when he was needed.

well the thing is

the refs were awful but we still easily could have won 5 games in this series yet we only won 2.

Your right

our team lost most these games. The refs didnt help but 2 points from Dirk in the 4th quarter? We should have won but we lost

Jason Terry sucks. He wil get hot once every 2 weeks, but he is no where near where he thinks he is. His shot selection is absolutely brutal not to mention all of the rushed shots tonight in the 2nd half. Just ridiculous.

If I was an outsider...

If I was not familiar at all with the NBA and watched all 6 games of the finals, I'd have trouble seeing Dirk as any kind of star, but Terry being our leader and best player. Dirk tanked. Let's face it.

The Heat were a better team all-around. No doubt about it. Better coach, better superstar, more aggression, better lane penetration, better composure.

Huh?

"If I was an outsider...
If I was not familiar at all with the NBA..."

Face this, man. Jason Terry is a mediocre, one dimensional point guard who is inferior at the most overwhelmingly important thing a PG does: make everyone around him better.

The so called "Jet" was atrocious except for a brief interval in the 1st quarter. 2 for his last 17. 2 for his last 17. And Orton, that's all that dude has ever been good for, perimeter shooting. Can't pass, can't slash/penetrate, can't defend. His lameass made the only 2 good penetrations this series tonight and got swatted on both. When your miss count is up around 10 in a row or so, and you are THE POINT GUARD, perhaps its time to make a play some other way. Harris knows, he'll be a stud in a couple of years. Nash is still on this team and we sweep...

And finally, no, the Heat weren't a better all-around team, the coaching edge was minute, but you're right about the penetration/superstar. Dirk needs to learn what Duncan and Wade have already mastered: Be a star, charge the lane, and the zebras will hand you the game on a platter...the bastards...

Name all the point guards

currently in the NBA who truly make their teammates better in the PG sense.

I can think of three, maybe four.

There are others who think pass first but are a liability on defense and on offense as a scorer.

point guards

Nash, Kidd, Billups, Bibby, Cassell, Parker, Miller, Ford, Hinrich...

That's so asinine

Do you not remember Terry slashing to the hole at all last night? He penetrated more than anyone last night. More than anyone the whole series. He seemed to be the only one moving on the offensive end last night...the only one who understands off-the-ball movement.

I think you're a little emotional right now. Nash would not have guaranteed a sweep. If we had Nash, we would have gotten beat by SA. The only reason we got beat by Miami was Dwyane Wade.

Well Dwayne Wade

the refs on Dwayne Wade, and Dirk looking like a role player rather than a star.

Ugh

I didn't agree with a single thing you said there.

I guess its pretty pointless discussing it, now, though, so I'm dropping it...

Terry sucked

but who didn't tonight? I think Shawn Bradley could have done a better job than Damp tonight, and Dirk and Howard both took their fair share of retarded shots.
