Mavericks vs Heat meet for a sixth episode of the series

I usually pay no attention to the NBA but this year's finals series, being played by the Dallas Mavericks and the Miami Heat has been but nothing short of thrilling.

The heroic last few minutes of Dirk Nowinski and his Dallas teammates in games 4 and 5 left me on the edge of my seat. Lebron James' surprising inability to take control at the end of games has left me equally shocked.

Right now, the series is tied at 3-2 (The Mavericks lead the series) and a pivotal game in Miami tips off tonight at 8 p.m. If the Mavs win tonight, they take the series and the 2011 NBA Championship. Players like Nowinski and Jason Terry will be propelled in stardom only yielded to champions. Their Miami opponents will go home dissapointed and upset. The controversy Lebron James and Chris Bosh's move to the city created will not have seemed to balance out.

A victory by the Heat tonight will extend the series to seven games, something the close final scores and back-and-forth competition prevalant throughout the entire series as led many to forsee.
