Your Heat-Mavericks Game Five Open Thread
Game five, at the venue American Airlines sponsors that isn't in Miami, 9 p.m., ABC.
Remember, the NBA Finals have been 2-3-2 (the rest of the playoffs is 2-2-1-1-1) since 1985. Which means Dallas has a chance, in a pick 'em game at home tonight, to write a whole lot of "Miami Is Doomed, And We Told You So Back In July" stories. Or Miami could win, and have two chances to win the series at home, and then you'll get the "Miami Is King, And We Told You So Back In July" stories.
Either way, the wretches have already come for LePersonal Life.
Anyway, game's on, 15 minutes, get your popcorn, all of that. Talk about it below.
