Mavs ties the series at 2-2

It was another "real-playoff-series" match between the Miami Heat and Dallas Mavericks. From the very start of the quarter 'till the last buzzer, no team had gone far lead over the other.

Wade exploded with 32 points, but that wasn't enough to stop the 17-4 run of the Mavs in the late quarter to even the series at 2-2.

Dirk with 21 points and a lay-up that gave them the 3 point lead to win the game is not enough without the 16 rebounds contribution of Tyson Chandler. Chandler had dominated the boards, defensively and offensively, giving the Mavs more chances to aim a shot and score.

With Dirk ailing and still contributing in the game, lifting his team, on the other hand, everything just didn't go with Lebron James. Though he had 8 rebounds and 7 assists, he only scored 8 points, which really sticked out because of the loss.

Can Heat recover take game 5 and win the series home? or will Mavs assure themselves of a game 7 series?

Game 5's on June 9, Thurs, 9pm ET. You can catch live action at Live Sports Online.
