Kinda surprised there's no thread up! So here we go...

Game 1 - no surprises. Miami hold serve on their court.

Game 2 - had to go lunch about 3 minutes in to the 4th, & I thought Miami were going to run away with it. I came back and saw that Dallas won by 2. Wow. Blown away, but happy.
Really disappointed in Dwyane Wade, the celebrations in front of the Dallas bench were very douche-like. Used to really like him... emphasis on the past tense.

I think the celebration was ok, as Wade said players celbrate all the time when they make small runs and the opposing coach takes a time out because of it.

But they try to train the shot clock to much, instead of getting quality shot(against the improved Dallas defense), and Dallas make a huge comeback again.

I disagree.
Sure, players celebrate, but look at the tape: (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlqPpjrYUJQ&feature=pl...)
Wade's "celebrating" for longer than 10 seconds, right in front of the Orlando bench, before he and LeBron get into it as well.
I mean... really? Who does that? Leaves their hand in the air for THAT long? Hell... not even Kobe.

Premature.

i found the celebrating of LeBron "boxing" him bigger, and both celebrations smaller of the celebration of the OKC team which was in my eyes to much for the situation.
But i saw celbrations like that more then one time, even earlier in the game but in the end of game before they start loosing it looks crappy.

Don't forget Tyson Chandler and his defense/rebounding and his presence on the offensive glass. He contributes a lot more than people think.

Chandler and Marion were great in game 2. Especially Marion. I'm hoping Barea and Peja can get going in Dallas and turn this series in their favor.

Let's be honest, with all the talent, the Heat defense and with Lebron and Wade and a somewhat injured Dirk, Miami is the favorite. However, if Dallas can steal games like game #2, they have a chance.
