Will Shaquille O'Neal dominate against the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA finals?

Question

My team the San Antonio Spurs and Tim Duncan were put out by the Dallas Mavericks. Will I see rejoice in seeing Shaq and the Miami Heat take out the team that took out my team the San Antonio Spurs? Will the Mavericks get there what goes around comes around? Next year my Tim Duncan will be at his best season of his career. I'm hoping for a 2,000 point season from Tim Duncan once again. Tim Duncan needs to be a beast like Shaq used to be back in the days. He's got the talent but he's too timid. I hate that! Chris Webber doesn't bang in the paint no more either. He think he's a shooting/small forward! The NBA needs more beasts! 1990's had the beasts, Olajuwon, Robinson, Ewing, O'Neal, Mourning.

Answer 1

I like SHAQ...but he will not beat the MAVS !!!

Answer 2

I know, I'm SOOOO bitter over the Spurs loss...! They should've gone on to the Finals...! But alas..! To answer your question (honestly), I think that Shaq is just too much man to handle..! He is a BEAST, and nobody on the Mavericks can guard him! You double him? Then that leaves a jump-shooter wide open! Even if Shaq isn't playing his absolute best, Dwayne Wade HAS! He has had his best playoff year ever, and I'm expecting him to have a great series. Aside from that, the Heat has Peyton, Mourning, and Walker, who are all past their prime, and hungry for a championship at last. Case in point? I think this series is Miami's to lose! Dallas? You had a good run....=)

Answer 3

It takes more than one player to beat an opposing team. Take for example last year, Shaq and Kobe are two of the 'most' talented players in the game, but they were no match for five player from Detroit(I believe). Those guys played together and the Lakers acted like they were dependent on only the two. Shaq with the Heat is great but I don't think he'll still the show because of the Mavs ability to defend him and their coach is remarkable. Talking about making something out of nothing. God Bless!!!!!!

Answer 4

Shaq is the most dominent force in the game, by far. I wouldn't go as to say the most dominent ever, but he definatly owns the game today moreso then any other eras' "most dominent player." He dominates any and all comers individually. However, his domination of the Mavs, which will start tonight, will not result in team victory but more personal praise for Diesel. He will do his thing, and feel empty come next year when he watches Dallas get their rings opening night.

Answer 5

haha shaq and the heat are not going to win... dallas is up 2 - 0.. and possibly 3-0 tonight... no team has come back down 2-0 in like over 25 years.. i believe dallas is going to take it in 5 or 6.. hopefully 6.. so they'll be in dallas and there will be some party, and possible riots!

Answer 6

If Shaq's gravy legs don't give out on him, they might have a shot. Let's not forget that D Wade has carried this team to the playoffs almost single handedly, so the real question is... Will Shaq AND Wade be able to take out Dirk "The Dork" Nowinski and... Who ever plays for them. So i say The Heat will win in 6 games.

Answer 7

Yes, if Shaq is healthy. I mean the Mavericks only have Dampier, Diop, and Nowitzki to guard him. None of these guys are good enough. It will be tough for the Mavs to stop him in the paint.

Answer 8

That is the only way the Heat will win if Shaq dominates like he did against my Pistons although the Heat beat my team I would like to see them win this year.

Answer 9

Shaq ripped apart the detroit pistons and the defensive player of the year Ben Wallace so why will he fall short in dallas?

Answer 10

Yes

Answer 11

YES YES YES Shaq is just Too big too mess with!!!! I think some people think he is timid, but he must be careful on defense because of his size he is targeted for fouls more often! Go Miami!!!!!!!!
