Dallas vs OKC= Dallas in 5
Dallas vs Memphis = Dallas in 6
Miami vs Chicago= Miami in 7
Dallas vs Miami should be a stellar series
I say Dallas in 6 if that happens. I just want to see Queen James get it stuck to him no matter what. I'm a huge Bulls fan today, which is funny because I always hated them as a kid when they did my Cavs everytime.
Okay, holy cow. That was a good game. The big what, 8 of Chi versus the big 3 of Miami. haha. I'm sure Miami will regroup. This game was close for 2.5 quarters. You've got to love watching the bulls play. They play with intensity, team work, and iq.
If any uk heads are reading this thread, check out these bulls v heat games, intense basketball.

I just don't know if Miami can keep can handle that defense for an entire series. That was just amazing.
3 things being overlooked because of dirks transcendant game
1) Kendrick Perkins was EMBARASSING.... his +/- was -14..... 7 Points 5 Rebounds LOLOLOLOLOL
2) Russell Westbrook was EMBARASSING..... he shot 3 for 15 for 6 points. 14 of his 20 points came from free throws. LOLOLOLOL
3) The big selling point for OKC was their 2 bigs and their deep deep bench. This was far from the case
Dallas's Bench .... 53
OKC's Bench..... 22
Some people will argue that Dirk won't go for 48 every night... to that I say the reason he scored like that is because of how Jason Kidd played. They weren't doubling Dirk so Jason Kidd only shot 3 shots the entire night. Instead, Kidd just loaded up on assists to Dirk. if they double up on Dirk then JET goes for 35 and Kidd goes for 18-25 Peja and Kidd both had 3 points.... that wont happen again.
I do not doubt that OKC can win a SINGLE game against Dallas.... but tonight OKC had no answers for Dirk or the Dallas bench.
Game 2 for me is clean slate in this series. First quarter Dirk sat down and OKC ran hard on them, dallas trailed by what, 9? I think if OKC can do a little better on Dirk, it could tip the balance. Any time Dirk was shut down, he could just pass out for a 3. This game was just too hype. I think there is basketball to be played here. Team like OKC with a lot of heart, can never count those fuckers out.
Yeah man, Dirk was beasty. Some ticky tacky fouls, no doubt. That was a boring game to watch, I'm not going to lie. Can't wait for the bulls. Can the bulls or miami deal with Dirk?

dirk was never shut down... he was sat down. He had 10 points in the first quarter. He was simply sitting down.
This isn't a fluke for Dallas. Dallas lost game 4 in the first round to portland after leading by 23. Dirk and Terry called a meeting and told the story of them collapsing in 2006 and ripped some fucking ass.
Since then Dallas has won 7 straight PLAYOFF games.

The beauty of Dallas is if you focus on Dirk you open up the medium/long range game of dallas which is just as deadly as dirk.
Peja and Kidd had 6 points combined yet Dallas still went for 122.
This year Dallas and Chicago split their series 2-2 (one of dallas's losses was without Dirk).
Dallas swept Miami
I think Dallas would do very well vs Miami. I think against Chicago it'll be a battle of an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. Is Dallas gonna be able to breakthrough Chicagos D?? Is Chicago gonna be able to score enough to keep up with Dallas?
