| NBA Finals Game Four: The Dallas Maverick Look To Even Up the Series Against the Miami Heat |
The margin is 2-1, close on the scoreboard even though it doesn’t feel that way on the floor. The Heat have repeatedly built double-digit cushions against the Dallas Mavericks, and a late collapse in Game 2 is all that’s keeping them from the lead that’s never been blown in an NBA series. The Heat insist the game isn’t as easy as Wade and LeBron James are making it look, and the Mavericks refuse to admit they might just be facing a superior foe. Game 4 is Tuesday night, and a Heat victory would put them in position to win a second championship on the Mavericks’ floor if they followed that with another one Thursday. Wade clutched the finals MVP trophy that night five years ago, already a superstar in just his third NBA season, and figured he would be back plenty of times. Instead, the Heat never truly contended again—partially because they were clearing salary cap space for last summer—until James and Bosh agreed to join him in Miami. With that trio together, the Heat could win multiple titles, but Wade doesn’t want to wait. That’s why he and the Heat could be disappointed about where the series stands. They led by 12 in Game 1, were up 15 with 7:14 to go in Game 2, and they had a series of double-digit advantages in Game 3, when it peaked at 14 points. Forcing turnovers on defense that sent Wade and James off for fast-break dunks, it’s often appeared they could run away from the Mavericks whenever they wanted. Yet Dallas rallied to pull out Game 2 by two points and kept coming back Sunday before falling 88-86. And though they’ve been playing from behind, the Mavericks remain unconvinced that’s where they’ll end up. The finals have had consecutive games decided by two or fewer points for the first time since 1998, according to research provided to the NBA by the Elias Sports Bureau. So even when his team is building those sizable gaps, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra doesn’t expect them to last, adding that regret over not having the 3-0 lead is “wasted energy.” So can Wade and James. Both are so good they can carry the Heat when the other is struggling. When both are rolling, it might be too much for Dallas’ defense to stop. But the Mavs will have trouble beating them without more help for Dirk Nowitzki. Already a team without a certified No. 2 option, Dallas has looked even weaker in its losses, when James defended top reserve Jason Terry in the fourth quarter and held him without a basket in either. Nowitzki said the Mavs have to free Terry and their other perimeter shooters for better looks. The Mavericks have several sports betting trends in their favor for game four. The Mavericks are 15-5-1 against the spread in their last 21 games against a team with a winning record, 13-3-1 ATS in their last 17 games playing on 1 days’ rest, and 20-8-1 ATS in their last 29 games overall. The Mavericks get a better overall performance from their bench as they shut the door on the heat and get a win in game four. Play on the Dallas Mavericks

The NBA Finals looks as though it could be over, if the Mavericks cannot find someone to help out on the offensive end of the floor. The Miami Heat have played exceptional defense and regained home court advantage. Dirk Nowitzki is doing all of the work for the Mavericks and without help, this series could be over.
