And Game 5 was even WORSE. But yes, for Game 6 the TV angles were better to see the damage. What about the foul call that sent Wade to the line where not only was he untouched, but no Maverick was within a foot and a half of him? LOL. That was in the first half though, boring, lets move on to the last 25 seconds.
ANOTHER Wade bail out call when the Mavs were up 1 (echoes of Game 5). Worst of all, it wasn't a shooting foul but they were in the penalty so Wade gave the Heat the lead with FREE THROWS yet again. Remember that "foul"? Dirk was running sideways staying with Wade, Dirk's arms were STRAIGHT UP to prove to the officials that he wasn't fouling, but then Wade throws his RIGHT ELBOW into Dirk's chest. BLEEEEEP! Offensive foul right! Mavs ball! Not in this league. Wade at the line. Dirk, HOW DARE YOU get elbowed in the chest!
By then, the damage was done, but on the final play when Terry tried for 3, his jersey was being held onto by Gary Payton. No call there either.
Dwayne Wade 21 free throws. Mavericks TEAM 23 free throws. So much for home cooking...
