The Nba 2011 champions are the Dallas Mavericks as the team earned its first franchise title. As the series ended with 4-2 with the final score 106-95 in favor of the Dallas Mavericks. The Miami Heat failed to win and make it a 3-3 series to force a deciding game 7. At the first half the Dallas Mavericks had small lead and during the start of the 2nd half it was an all out war between both teams. As Dwane Wade would exerts all his efforts in trying to make the game close and tight till the end. On the 4th quarter the Heat would try to spoil the Dallas Mavericks big men Dirk Nowtizki and Tyson Chandler putting them into foul trouble. But Dallas bench and other back up players would step up and help there team. J.J. Barrea and Jason Terry would nail their 3 point shots and Jason Kidd of dive and hustle for the ball.

Wade lack support from his fellow superstars Lebron James and Chris Bosh who were seemingly slipping from the whole picture. Chris Bosh would hesitate from his shots and would miss some free throws. Lebron James would have some several turnovers including some offensive fouls and out of bounds calls from the referee.

Behind the teams success was also the long time dream of several Dallas players.

Dirk Nowitzki

After 13 years of playing in the Nba as a professional basketball player Dirk Nowitzki would earn his first ever Nba championship title. Dirk explains how he really worked hard half of his life in trying to achieve what players in the Nba was trying to accomplish and now he made this so far and Dirk was so emotional for his first Nba championship title. Dirk was so happy that he left the game early in the final quarter with just 5 seconds life on the clock.

Dirk went straightly to the locker room as tears of joy were seen on his eyes. Dirk also elaborated that it was indeed a sweet revenge for them from the 2006 lost against the Miami Heat. When the Dallas Mavericks won 2 straight games at home but lost 4 straight to Miami. Dirk Nowitzki would also earn his first Nba finals Mvp as he really deserves the award. Dirk would struggle early in the game with poor shooting to end the first half. But when the game hits 4th quarter he stood up to the challenge and would his shots count when his team needs it most.

Dirk really prove to be consistent both physically and mentally. Dirk outlasted a sick game 4 and an injured his left middle finger with a teared tendon. But Dirk would be consistent especially on the crucial part of the game and his free throws. In the start of the finals between the Miami Heat Dirk would ask help from his teammates especially on the offense side. Since he knows he is the main target of the Miami Heat to be shut down. And who would step up the moment he will be guarded defensively and will have a bad game. And soon on the coming games Dirk's teammates would step up to help his loads. Then Jason Kidd, J.J. Barream Jason Terry, Tyson Chandler and the rest of the troops would be there to help Dirk out.

Jason Kidd

The 38 year old from San Francisco California Jason Kidd finally capture one Nba championship title after several attempts and appearance in the Nba finals. Kidd had chances and opportunities before when his New Jersey Nets team went to the finals two times. But they lost to the Los Angeles Lakers and to the San Antonio Spurs. But now Kidd accomplished what he had dream long. To get an Nba Championship with all the hard work and efforts he gave.

Jason Kidd would be consistent in the game as he knows his contributions are needed by Dirk Nowitzki and the rest of this teammates would benefit from it. His defense against talented super stars like Kevin Durant(Oklahoma Thunder) and Lebron James would a big factor. As Kidd would easily swipe the ball from their position and would also steal and take it away from them.

Jason Terry

Another player from the Dallas Mavericks who have been playing for quite a long time. Jason Terry even have a Nba Trophy Tattoo on his right arm. And Terry would tell the media that he dream this for a long time and would have end up a decision in removing the tattoo if they can't win a championship this series. Jason Terry had been Dirk Nowitzki's side score duo especially in the fourth quarter. And they had been dreaming this title for all of there life were they put all efforts on the line. Terry answered Dirk Nowitzki's call to help him offensively as Dirk was really having a hard time in the game. As a double or even triple team would guard him but when it happens Dirk would dish the ball to his teammate Jason Terry and would get an easy shot.

Peja Stojakovic

One of the rosters before of the underdog Sacramento Kings that were having a great finals against the Los Angeles Lakers. Peja Stojakovic finally capture an Nba title and someone full filled a dream come true on his professional basketball career. Peja Stojakovic had his sweetest revenge from the Los Angeles Lakers. When his team Sacramento Kings lost to the hands of the 3 peat champions. It was a dream come true for every shooter in the Nba to be there standing and waiting for the ball to be pass. And there was Peja left alone in an open place in the court and could have saved his Sacramento Kings from the hands of the Lakers.

But this time Peja Stojakovic prove about something to himself that he was ready to forget the past. And Peja accepted his defeat but would come back as a better shooter and a player playing for the Dallas Mavericks. He would contribute to his team offensively answering and nailing every three point shot he can give to them.

When the game was about to end and when Dwane Wade would go unstoppable on the 3rd quarter. Wade would made a three pointer to extend there lead to a 15 point deficit. And after the shot the Miami squad on the bench including the players on the court would celebrate.

But as soon as the 5:00 minute mark of the 4th quarter would start. It would also ignite the defense and offense of the relentless Dallas Mavericks. Were in they would crawl back and bite those 15 point deficit and make a huge come back. Possession after possession as the heat could not capitalize on there turnovers. And being bothered by the Dallas defense being showed and established. As the heat squad continued to be scoreless and bothered from the great defense the Dallas is throwing at them.

With 25+ seconds remaining Miami Heat would give Dallas a good inbound play. Mario Chalmers would drain a 3 point shot in the corner to tie up the game 93 a piece. And after that shot Dallas would call a time out and talk things over.

As soon as the time out was over. Both teams would be on the edge of there seats as the fans of the stadium would rise up for the last seconds of the Game.
