Game 6 NBA Finals 2011 Miami Heat vs. Dallas Mavericks



Experience and Team effort prevailed over vaunted athleticism.
The Dallas Mavericks overcame the vaunted athleticism of the Miami Heat, despite the poor shooting of Dirk Nowitzki in the first half, with the help of Jason Terry and the rest of the Mavericks. Even Ian Mahinmi contributed in this win.
As Dan Gilbert would say", There is no shortcut!'. Well said Mr. Gilbert. It took the Mavericks 6 years to overcome their major blunder that was the 2006 finals with the Heat. Since then, only Nowitzki and Terry were the original part of that roster. The acquisition of Jason Kidd, Shawn Marion, Caron Butler, Tyson Chandler, and later on Peja Stojakovic obviously added to the deepening of the mavericks' roster. Some of them may not have played big minutes during the finals series but were contributors during the regular season.
This roster, however, is one of the oldest if you will consider their aggregate age. Perhaps, Mark Cuban may have to start injecting young blood in the team.
For the meantime, Mavericks fans all around the globe are cherishing this championship moment.
Go Mavs!
