The finals has now virtually turned into a best-of three affair between
the Miami Heat and the Dallas Mavericks. Dirk Nowitzki, who is running high on
fever during game four, squeezed everything he had to rescue the Mavericks from
falling down, 3-1, with a superb final quarter to nipped the favored Heat,
86-83. Dallas
emphasized the importance of team game anew as against the almost three-man
show Heat squad. Heat Fil-Am head coach Erik Spoelstra admitted that the Mavs
outplayed the Heat down the stretch and they all need to focus on the crucial
game five.
“This series is a jump ball. Every single game. And they outplayed us
obviously there in the fourth quarter. And we didn’t take care of our business
on both ends of the court. We did not execute with a level of efficiency or
trust, and we had a couple of breakdowns, even though we had the eight or nine
straight stops there in the fourth, we were not efficient enough offensively.
“So here we are. We’re four
games into this. Both teams have done what they needed to do. Both teams have
won on the road one game. However you get to this point. And that’s what we’ll
focus on next, Game 5, the swing game.”
