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.

[DallasLuvster]

Wade shoots and falls down after almost

every shot without getting touched and

yet went to the free throw line.

A bunch of BS from Stern and his refs.

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.

'it's a good call. NOT Phantom Foul.

mav fans r IDIOT and blind.

nothing we can help the thing.

@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.

[unkomannn]

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.

D-Whistle at his best. Embarrassing.

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?

@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

--"I think [Dwyane] Wade averaged about 25 foul shots a game after the second game and you couldn't even touch him. " Phil Jackson (Wikipedia).

--Wade "shattered" Final free throw mark with 97 total

--In game 5 Wade shot as many free throws (!), as the entire Mav's team

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 !!!

[nickrock23]

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
