Shaq hassnt really been dominant all year, he's been good but not dominant, he is clearly on the decline. So what makes you think he is all of a sudden gonan start completey dominating the Mavs. Im assuming since the Mavs are so deep, there just gonna throw a bunch of bodies at him...Dampier, Diop, Dirk...etc...etc.

First of all, when did I say Damp was the best center in the league? I think it's common sense that he isn't. Shaq isn't the best center in the league either, mind you. Duncan could very well be one of the best centers in the leauge, and yes Diop played extremely well against Duncan in Game 7 overttime. Diop's D against Duncan is the reason the Mavericks are still in this. Shaq is old, slow, and fat. The Mavericks will work him and wear him down as quickly as possible.
The Mavericks have players that can D up against Shaq(I'm not saying well) Van Horn, Damp, Diop. The Mavericks are deep enough to put Shaq on the line many times, and that's what they'll do.
And come on guys, use your common sense. Who will be the answer for Dirk? Who will be the answer for Howard? Who will be the answer for Terry/Harris' speed and quickness? Are anyone on the Heat fast enough to handle them?
Don't answer my questions with more like,"Who will defend Wade?" or "Who will defend Shaq". I've repeated myself to many times already.
Again, I say that the Mavericks will win in 5.

okay i never said u did...about 1-2 years ago dampier said he is the best center in the league and shaq sucks...
haha anyone fast enough to keep up with terry and harris....um yeah maybe two
jason williams and d-wade who is one of the faster gaudrs in the league...the people that are gonna score for the mavs are the forwards....dirk,howard,stackhouse etc
the X factor in this game is shaq...
Dirk will get his 30 and wade will get his it all comes down to if Dallas can stop shaq...

First of all, be realistic. Jason Williams cannot match the speed and quickness of either Terry or Harris. Few white guys could for that matter. Not racist, just the truth. Wade may be able to, but he isn't as quick as Terry either. Please, please answer these questions for me:
Who will stop Dirk?
Who will stop Howard?
How will you stop Terry's quickness?
In answer to the questions I know you will ask.
How will we stop Wade?
Howard will cause problems for Wade with his long, lanky arms and body. He is in D and O. As long as he stays out of foul problems he will help neurilize Wade.
How will we stop Shaq?
In truth, we won't stop Shaq, but Shaq does have some key weaknesses. His age and his free-throwing shooting. We will capitalize on both making him work when he's on D and putting him on the line.

who wil stop dirk?
u can't stop dirk he's a superstar he'll get his points but if u mean who will guard him to keep him under 40 will be haslem...haslem is big and has speed not the best defender but has no problem beeting dirk up down low....
who will stop howard?
theres multiple opptions to put on howard the reason he did so well against the suns is cause bell was out of it....
walker/posey maybe even Wade depending on the situation...i think posey and walker can contain him okay but he will have a good series...
terry:
wade,the glove, or jason (can't run cause he's white) williams can keep up with him... there all his size i think the question should be
who will Terry Guard cause or Devin Harris with
shaq-diop
haslem-dirk
walker-terry????
williams-harris
wade-howatd
those 5 on the flour...

I couldn't understand your question. What were you asking?
And come on, none of those players you listed have the same speed and quickness as Terry.
The Mavericks are also commonly regarded as one of the most athletic teams in the league. You cannot honestly say that the Heat are as deep or as athletic as the Mavericks.

Heat In 6 games.....No one; including Josh Howard, Jason terry, Jerry Stackhouse, Devin Harris, OR even Mark Cuban is not going to stop DWYANE WADE.....Shaq is going to get his 20 points/ 10 rebounds and the heat role players are going to step it up.....Jason williams/James Posey/and Gary Payton are going to get you much needed scoring....

*Sigh* Why don't people understand that Dirk averages more points and rebounds a game then Wade. Ever thought of that? Howard can at least stem the bleeding of Wade's offense, but the Heat have NO answer for Dirk. Please, look at the stats people. And yes the Heat have role players but so do the Mavericks. The Mavericks are much deeper.

I understand Nowitzki averages more points/rebounds...if the Heat shut down Dirk, who on Dallas can carry the offensive load......If Shaq struggles, Wade is there, If Wade struggles, Shaw is there(evidence is Game 6 of eastern conference finals...)
