My newest theory is that if your name is spelled wrong–and, believe me, his name is spelled wrong–you gain these super human powers. I only have one test case, so it’s certainly possible that the theory is flawed. But until somebody proves me wrong, I’m going to count it as a law.
Anyway, in Wade’s case, his crazy superman powers are insane basketball skills. Who knows what it would be for me. From this point on, though, my name is spelled Jraed. Remember that.
Dwyane blew up at the end of the game last night. It was pretty damn cool to watch. He’s been on fire the last three games, and I hope it continues. At the end of overtime, he was covered by about six guys (which, the last time I checked, was against the rules), and he just drove through them and picked up a foul. He actually set the record for most free throws made in an NBA finals game. It was ridiculous all around.
Jason Terry played pretty well, too. It’s my opinion that if the Mavs would have given him the ball more, they would have won the game. Dirk also nailed a crazy shot with 10 seconds left in OT to force Wade’s insanity. Hopefully it continues to be a good serious. When it’s all over, though, I’d like to see the Heat holding the trophy.
[Edit:] Aha! I have a new theory. Perhaps Mr. Wade is the only one spelling his name correctly. Intriguing.

The Nowitzki shot was extreme. He had to arc that thing up to the rafters to even give it a chance. Plus, 7-footers shouldn’t be able to have fade away jump shots. It just isn’t fair.
Wade has skills. And the referees make it impossible to guard him. If he drives in the lane (which is his weapon of choice), then he’s gettin’ to the hole or gettin’ a foul called. Having top-5 in the league talent and the favor of the finals referee crew is a deadly combo.
Terry is gonna get paid this summer. He’s a FA. Whether it is by Dallas or someone else, he’s gettin’ paid.
By the way, during the whiffle ball tournament, our team name was Team Klye. Coincidence that we won it all? No. Good post, Jraed
