How many games will the series go? I believe the Mavs can easily sweep the HEAT but the powers that be want to see this series go as long as possible so they can make millions of dollars more than they would if the series ended in 4 games.
Mavs in 6

Mavericks over the Heat is 5 games - The Dunkin Deustchman cannot be stopped this year. He will lead his team to victory, a 4-1 series victory that will consist of very close games with Dirk continually pulling out all the stops to get the job done.
A Mavs vs. Heat finals would be awesome. I want to see Shaq/Wade/Toine/GP/JWill get a ring but I wouldn't mind seeing Dirk/JT get a ring. Either way it's going to be entertaining. I don't want to count out the Suns yet but if they do make it they're going to get pounded.
Who on the Miami Heat can guard Dirk? Probably James Posey will get the assignment, but Shawn Marion is a great defender and is still getting burned by Dirk.
Yea Dirk probably won't be stopped but then you run into the problem of who can stop Shaq/Wade. Sure you put Josh Howard on Wade to slow him down(which I don't think will matter much) but then MIA counters with Toine at SF and you're leaving Stackhouse or KVH on Toine? Toine isn't exactly greatness but I think he'll eat those two up.
if heat play the mavs it's going to be a lot closer then the heat playing the suns because simply dampier can do a better job on shaq then kurt thomas or boris diaw
Seriously....since when did the Suns get eliminated? Everyone is sleeping on them like they have all season. When Amare when down, nobody expected them to make the playoffs. When they lost Game 4 to LAL, we expected Kobe to advance to the second round. And of course, everyone expected the Clippers to take care of business with their big men...yet PHX remains. This is such a quality team, playing high quality basketball. If it one thing I learned this season, it would be: NEVER SLEEP ON PHX. Tonight, let's do this! NASH = MVP!!!
If the Mavs do win tonight and win the series then I expect them to win the finals in 6. Wade and Shaq are playing amazing but so is Dirk and he has had great support.
Dallas also has a great bench and enough bigs to give the Heat problems.
