Lebron James Failed: we are all Cleveland Cavaliers today (or so it seems)
Schadenfreude is pleasure derived from the misfortunes of others. This notoriously untranslatable German word is used as a loanword in English, and it perfectly encapsulates what American NBA fans feel today after the Dallas Mavericks denied the Miami Heat the league title. I guess it's fitting the Finals MVP (Dirk Nowitzki) who did them in was a native of Wurzburg, … [Read more...] about Lebron James Failed: we are all Cleveland Cavaliers today (or so it seems)
Dallas Mavericks 105, Miami Heat 95, Game 6: Dirk, Mavs Uber Alles
Well, I guess we know who took the "talent vs. team" argument. It's hard not to bring up "The Decision" and the utterly stupid Miami Heat what should have been a press conference but instead became an absurdly pre-emptive and arrogant pseudo-championship rally. It's not Key Lime, but instead humble pie that's being served in south Florida right now. Wade at that rally: … [Read more...] about Dallas Mavericks 105, Miami Heat 95, Game 6: Dirk, Mavs Uber Alles

-That was the first time since Jan. 5, 2007 that LeBron James was held below double-digits. It's the first time in 90 NBA playoff games that James was held to single digits. We witnessed history! Welcome to the Good Life! Summertime ahhhhhhh. The Dallas Mavericks are back in this, we don't have to concede a title to the Miami Heat just yet. -I hope a reporter asked Lebron … [Read more...] about Dallas Mavericks 86, Miami Heat 83 Game 4: Welcome to the Good Life

Dallas Mavericks 95, Miami Heat 93 Finals Game 2: Ich bein ein Nowitzki!
The Miami Heat had the Dallas Mavericks on the ropes in game two of the NBA Finals. And had they held on it would have been the likely end of the series. Would Dallas go quietly into that good night. 2006 MVP and German national Dirk Nowitzki's game said NEIN!! He then owned the velociraptor resembling Chris Bosh with a three and hook shot that said DAS IS SEHR GUT! -Why do … [Read more...] about Dallas Mavericks 95, Miami Heat 93 Finals Game 2: Ich bein ein Nowitzki!
Heat 92, Mavericks 84, NBA Finals Game 1: Do We Really Have to?
-I hate to be a fatalist even though it's just game one, but really? 73% of NBA Finals game 1 winners have gone on to take the series. And the Dallas Mavericks uncanny run of dominance over the Miami Heat only seems to apply in regular-season games. -Dallas led after the first quarter, despite shooting just 29%. They led all the way into the 3rd quarter before collapsing. … [Read more...] about Heat 92, Mavericks 84, NBA Finals Game 1: Do We Really Have to?
