@unkomannn It's weird. People constantly talk crap about Lebron, but look at Wade. Every time he doesn't get a call, he starts bitching. My favorite player on the Heat is Chris Bosh, because he doesn't do any of that baby back bullshit.
Ok so the NBA must be fixing the 2011 series since Miami has been called for twice as many fouls as Dallas for the season.. Hmm.. maybe it's because this year they have an inside presence? Tyson chandler has drawn more fouls than any other player on the court. He is a 7 footer who hangs in the paint and plays very physical. He plays hard and sells fouls well therefore Dallas is getting the vast majority of the calls. RefCalls says 14 fouls refs missed on Mavs in Game 3 and they still lost!! So?
Watch #31 push Payton at 8 seconds. Pretty sure that's a foul . Also look at when he then pulls Payton by the arm when Howard screen him from the ref. pretty dirty play as well !!!
This is actually the play where the Mavs commit 3 fouls at once. With Wade and Payton clearly in position for the rebound, (all Mavs failing to box out including 2 missed rotations) Howard pushes Wade, Terry elbows Gary Payton. The replay also showed Dirk made contact with Posey's left arm and left leg. 3 fouls on one play by the Mavs and you are claiming this was a bad call for them ?? lolololool
if you really think there's cheating going on, you can make a lot of money betting on sports. look up the sumo scandal and see how easy money could have been made
I felt bad for dallas. But remember guys...this is the nba. It's just entertainment. Theres corruption in everything. this was the year the refs get investigated remember? Couple months later and D. Stern was trying to shut everyone up.
If you want to make a credible argument for bad calls you need good footage, good sound, plenty of angles and you need to except that someone will be wrong. You also need to except that reguardless of what we all think, we can't change anything.
That's not what the foul was called for, which by the way the shooter at 0:07 is clearly sticking his leg out which is an offensive foul. Regardless the foul was called for "over-the-back" on Marquis Daniel by none other Dwayne Wade.

HAS ANYONE NOTICED THE MAVS ARE CONSIDERED CONTENDERS EVERY YEAR AND EVERY YEAR THEY GET KNOCKED OUT IN FIRST OR SECOND ROUND? bigger chokers than lebron and his cavs
@animebrawler Do you have shit for a brain? Seriously? 'Fair n square'? This guy has put up, what? Five or so videos of Wade getting calls when nobody even touches him. That's not what I'd call 'fair n square'. I'm pretty sure the majority of all NBA fans can agree that Dallas got fucked over on that series so pull your head out of your ass and just watch the damn videos without jacking off to Wade and be realistic, faggot.
So he trips Dirk and they call the foul on Dirk...
What made this series even tougher was not only was the league, refs, and stern out to get cuban and the Mavs, but Miami was a dirty team that resorts to cheating technics.
They guy will probably add to the story for his book to sell more. Everybody does that. Read the FBI report. You would have to be a blind man not to see the NBA was favoring WADE. But the NBA did NOT give MAvs the series. Alot of the players chocked. Same thing that happen against golden state in 07. Dallas is just known for chocking. I dont think the NBA wanted Miami to win. They just wanted to market Dwayne Wade as a Superstar which he's not. But obviously worked Cuz the an has a big fanbase
No, but giving Wade 25 free throws (as much as the entire Dallas team) in Game 5 sure can. Read Tim Donaghy's book. Even he said Dallas had no shot at winning this Finals.
@tybceo25 Ok, you can stop forming all your opinions based on what Sportscenter tells you. Check Dirk's stats from Game 6 when Dalllas was facing elimination. Dirk is the only Mav that showed up. His teammates are the ones that sucked. I've watched the Mavs for years, trust me, Josh Howard was BY FAR the biggest choker on the team. Not Dirk. Dirk has statistically been one of the most clutch players in the league for years. Again, turn off ESPN.
Ha your talking about 1 game. Game 4 he went 2-14. Game 1 he went 4 -14 Game 5 8-19. He choked. Try something other then the that Usual ESPN attack everyone uses. He only had 1 game where he shot better from the field then his season average. NBA was obviously favoring Dwade but they didnt make Dirk and co. Chock the series away.
@tybceo25 If you can admit the NBA was favoring Wade, you also imply that the NBA also allowed Miami to hack and maul Dirk, explaining his lower FG%. Wade actually shot below his average FG% for the series too. What people forget is that Dirk nailed what would have been the game winning shot in Game 5 until Bennett Salvatore called the worst foul of the series and gave Wade two more undeserved free throws. Read Tim Donaghy's book. He explains exactly what was going on with the refs back then
@Apocalypse3434 That call was actually correct they just called it on the wrong person, a picture shows Devin Harris clearly fouled Wade...Dirk however didn't touch him. They just called it on the wrong guy...
wow...this was years ago...get over it! get ur facts str8 too...wade is under the basket, thats posey shooting the ball. the players know how the refs work...dirk didnt have to charge at him like that, so good im glad they called that foul. GET OVER IT!
You didn't really just say that, did you? Its called contesting a shot. Dirk got a hand in his fast. Had he not sprinted over there, it would have been a much easier 3 point shot.
Lame attempt. That was a horrible call. Dirk was closing out on a shooter, it happens roughly 100 times in every NBA game. There was no contact until Posey stuck out his foot. Any good ref should have seen that and let them play.
Where does the person who posted this video claim it was Wade shooting?
You just assumed he was complaining about Wade because you know damn well that was the sort of call that went his way that whole series. Turns our the refs spread out the horseshit effort over the entire Heat squad.
Yes you can. In the 2008 playoffs gasol pushed okur while trying to get a rebound. It's not that you can't do it, but you can't do it to a superstar or you will get called for it.
think about it guys.. mark cuban called out david stern so many times that season.. the last thing he wanted to do is hand him the trophy, and if the refs didnt make that ridiclious call in game 3, dallas would be up 3-0= boring finals and no ratings..
this years finals was the worst i've ever seen so far. But that Miami vs Dallas finals was so wrong. I felt bad for Dallas. How in the world can one guy do so many spinning traveling moves and still get to the free throw line more than the ENTIRE team he's facing. Only if you're Dwayne Wade.
@brocky Yeah.The Heat/Mavs finals is what convinced me the NBA is fixed.You could tell who the NBA wanted to win(Heat) that series.Hungry for another "Shaq & Kobe", the NBA machine pulled off all stops to get Wade & Shaq a ring..The Mavs got shitted on in every game by the refs.
People talk about the 2002 Kings/Lakers series, but i think Mavs/Heat was worst.They were just pulling phantom calls/fouls out of thin air.
Another series was Spurs/Suns in 07.The year Amare got suspended.
@brocky According to RefCalls, Dirk is commits the 2nd most travels in the NBA. I think he had 7 travels that weren't called in Game 3 of the 2011 Finals. He and Lebron travel the most, mostly by lifting the pivot foot before putting ball on floor. Dirk takes extra steps nearly every time he puts the ball on the floor and it's not a new thing. Wade doesn't travel like Kobe, Dirk, Bron, Rose, Rondo
yes, dirk lost his balance b/c his foot got caught in posey's foot and yes, there was a foul. Focus on the rebounding and not the shot. if you look closely, Daniels'(6) left arm clears Wade(3) out. Whether Wade had a chance for the rebound or not is irrelevant. The only reason the call becomes questionable is because its the finals.
So is it a foul? most definitely. Should it have been called? that was up to the refs.. in this case, the call was made. simple as that
why was he unbalanced? lol, because he ran out from basically under the basket to contest a three and he had to make sure he didn't touch wade despite trying to get an arm in his face. you try doing that and keeping your balance.
But this is the NBA Finals....these are supposed to be the best refs in the game and they're just beinding over and pleasuring Wade in all 5 of these clips. AND THIS WAS ONE GAME!
well it looks like a stupid call. I know... but by basketball rules. if you shoot 3-pointer, and after you get back on the ground and one of your foot are still in the air, and the defender jumps on any part of your body...it's a foul. that's the rule even if it sounds very strange.
That is a Great observation ,Posey does try to trip Nowitzki & Wade mis judges the ball on the rebound. Wade has NO chance of getting the rebound So there is No Foul, But the Refeerres Bail Wade & Miami out AGAIN
if u watch video and look closely u can see that wade was trying to BOX -OUT daniels which is a legal thing to do because daniels was caught in a wrong position no foul on part of dirk and posey... this is clearly a loseball foul on daniels because wade has the position and as wade jump up, daniels (no.6 dallas)push him with his elbow so thats clearly a foul on part of dallas (daniels no 6)
Anyone notice he did this EXACT flop again in Game 3 of this year's Finals? What a fucking cheater. No respect for this clown.

Wade flopped himself to a ring in 06.
But in 2011, he gets no shit from the critics because he has that ring.
Wade was applauded for being aggressive in the '11 finals,
unfortunately, that meant he was aggressively FLOPPING.
People should realize he is more of D-bag than Lebron.
