Mavericks vs Heat 5/31/11 Game 1 ADS

Mavs: 84
Heat: 92

Unlike previous series we don't see a huge difference in the made/miss numbers. Here are some of the numbers. Oddly enough the closer JET got the more he missed doesn't help that he went 3-for-10. I know it's only one game but Dallas has to figure out a way to make James come out of his comfort zone. We worry about him driving the basket, but only 6 out of his 16 were below 10ft.

James: 13.22/13.14

Wade: 10.78/12.7

Nowitzki: 11.71/10.36

Terry: 24.67/18.87

A rare off night for the Dallas bench as they were out scored 27-17. The bench who has been a big story this postseason is going to have to step it up. As only time will tell how Dirk's injury effect his play, some weight falls on the shoulders of Terry and JJ to make noise. That being said Bibby and Anthony (both Heat starters) went for a combined 0-for-5 so its pretty clear on who the Mavs should be focusing on.
