How could I miss this?

As the Miami Heat win their first NBA Title, I missed the fact that they stunk except for Dwayne Wade, and Dallas only played stinkier, allowing the Heat to win. Now I'm not saying that it was a boring series, NO WAY, it's just that the Dallas pity party gave the Heat their first title. Shaq did not play well, Alonzo Mourning played awesome for brief periods, Udonis Haslem played great in Game 6, but not in any other games, Jason Williams did not shoot well, and the list goes on. Dwayne Wade played like Michael Jordan, and it was enough to win the championship.

X-Factor: Mark Cuban, Mavericks owner, was fined 250,000 after heckling the refs and starting a brawl with fans. Then head coach Avery Johnson sounded off about Jerry Stackhouse's suspension, which was well deserved by the way. It got the whole team down, and Dirk played like a jerk, except for the first half of game 6, but by then it was too late.

LAST STATEMENT for this season: The main thing is that the Heat won. But it was a bittersweet ending for me, as I am sure it was for many people.

I'M OUT.

3-2! Miami Heat stun Mavs in OT: And are now the magic number 1 away from first NBA Title!!!!


Yet again, he is acting like he belongs in the Finals. This man has Superman on his side, he is the Flash, he has the drive of a champion, he is Dwayne Wade. The next Michael Jordan is emerging in front of our eyes, we never expected this man to be great, yet he is showing us that he is not just great, but that he is GREATNESS.

Now, do not forget where this awe-inspiring talent comes from. GOD. On Father's Day, the Father looked down on Wade and watched as the Heat took Game 5 from the Dallas Mavericks, 101-100 in OT. Wade made the game winning free throw, and he also broke an NBA Finals single game record with 21 made free throws enroute to 43 points.

I hope I get to play basketball with Wade in heaven. I do believe Wade is a Christian, as he has commented much about how God has given him his gifts.

Here are Wade's Finals stats: 34.4 points per game, .6 blocks per game, 2.4 steals, 3.6 assists per game, 7.4 rebounds per game

Well, gtg play chess. I did start the game Elizabeth. I'm OUT
