D-Wade's Finals performance does it for me. Only his 3rd year in the league against a really good team in a series that they won coming back from a 2-0 deficit? That's the one of the only 2000s Finals performances I've ever re-watched.

[@kokoro_gospel]

This breakdown is greatly appreciated, especially since I was in high school in the early 2000s and it's been ages since the Lakers' three-peat and Timmy's performance against the Nets.

[@eternalboss1046]

Shaq for the 3 finals MVPs: 35.8 PPG / 14.9 RPG / 3 BPG / 29.5 FGA-PG Lakers for the those 3 finals 103.8 PPG / 43.5 RPG / 7 BPG / 79.3 FGA-PG So Shaq was scoring 34.5% of the team's points but needed only 29.5% of the team's FGA to do so. He grabbed 34% of their rebounds and had 43% of their blocks. Only Duncan can you find a higher (relative to team's output) Reb and Blk% for any of the 2000s finals, and no one else can you find that high of a PPG% on that low of a FGA%.

Pierce elevated himself above Allen in '08...Allen shined in G3 and the celts caught a loss as a result. G4 comes and Paul posts a Great +/-, assist line, and points scored. While playing almost the whole game in a more taxing position than Allen. Allen benefited from opportunities; Pierce facilitated them.

Ranking Wade's 2006 Finals performance at #2 on this list is completely fair. Wade destroyed the Mavericks and brought the Heat back from an 0-2 deficit to win the 2006 championship. As far as Wade's free throws go, I'll admit that there were a few questionable foul calls, but the vast majority of those free throws resulted from the simple fact that no one on the Mavericks could stop Wade without fouling him.

[@raihan6908]

Exactly. Yes there were some questionable calls. But the reality is the Mavs defense just didn't have an answer for Wade. Some people need to stop giving into conspiracy theories and actually go watch(or re-watch) the footage from the 06 finals, because it's not like we don't have the footage.
