Wade Fouled Dirk (Sigh)

This is what I said earlier today...

Not totally, but the officiating somewhat played a role in this one. Favoring Wade a little in the fishing-for-foul department. Case in point, less than a minute to go, Wade trying to get pass by Dirk, Wade used his forearm on Dirk. Dirk was in position. Foul on Dirk. In a close series or in a close game, so so officating could turn the tide.


This is what Steve Kerr said...

CALL OF THE GAME

Dallas fans will talk about this one for a long time. With the Mavs trailing by one point and 26 seconds to go, Wade dribbled around a screen and clearly threw his arm out into Dirk Nowitzki's chest. Nowitzki was called for the foul, however, sending Wade to the line where he made both free throws. Had the call gone the other way, we could be talking about a Game 7. Instead, Miami hung on for the win – and the championship.
