Who has a better chance of beating the heat?

I think the Mavs stand a better chance, I think Dirk will give Riles a hard time matching up especially since they always keep shaq in the paint, and he aint too mobile. But the suns have speed though, and the heat might not be able to take that kinda pace for a 6 or 7 game series.
 
Chicago gave the Heat so much trouble, that they went zone & still couldn't guard much. Pure speed won't always work if Miami can work them inside strong enough. It all depends on who gets into foul trouble, & enough people getting back on defense.

Dallas is composed of mid & long range shooters. Posey can play some good D, but J Williams isn't too interested. Dirk won't have smaller players guarding him, so he might have to move away from that free throw line.

I see Phoenix playing on or off every night, but not being able to run the series to six or seven. Dallas will play a more even matchup, but won't be able to hold on at the end of tight games.
 
Mavs.

They're better suited against Shaq since they have some experience in guarding a scoring big guy in Duncan recently.
 
Mavs if they play consistant, but hey they still gotta beat the suns first.

Miami just goes in waves, only shaq/wade and if somebody decides to show up and make shots that night
