This title could also be "why the Heat will win the series against the Pacers this year".

I will keep it short and sweet with all that is needed to know.

The Heat once again shot horribly from 3p (5-21) and still won by 3. The Pacers shot better than their league averages across the board. Neither of those percentages will be sustainable for a 7 game series.


A side note, the NBA refs are in fact bullshit when it comes to the Pacers. Sure they were called for 1 more foul than the Heat...but they should have been called for so many more. Besides watching the game the Heat have Wade, LBJ and Bosh as elite scorers. The Pacers do not have 1. The law of basketball would tell you that the Heat should be drawing a lot more fouls and the Pacers should be called for them a lot more. And LOL at bringing up LBJ on the final shot, his hand did not alter the shot or PGs body and that is not even close to the shit Hibbert and PG get away with all game.

Miami role players were absolute trash and Bosh for the most part also. Bird did provide good energy in the 4th but this was mainly the LBJ/D-Wade show

All good points...I'm still standing by my preseason prediction although a case could be made both ways. As for the last play, it was indeed a foul....but I've seen worse not get called in the final seconds of a game.

Wade always carries Heat - but lets give credit to LeClown for playing with an alleged bum ankle, yeah right

It was a very crafty sneaky veteran foul that can not be called if it were a foul at all. If that gets called then WTF to every other play of the Pacers D.

Agree it can still go both ways, I just do not see the Heat shooting that bad for a 7 game series against a team that does not focus on 3p D or the Pacers shooting that well for a 7 game series against a pretty good Miami D.

even if it does get called... he has to hit all 3 just to tie. even if he does hit all 3.. no guarantee pacers win in OT especially without hibbert.

A week ago?

"This game means nothing."

After the win?

"Give us our rings now."

Beyond absurd. :L

The more shit I see like this, the more I think some of you started watching basketball in 2008.

There's like 11 legit teams in the West and almost every thread in the NBA forum is about one of the two teams in the East that are not god awful.

It's because they're the best team in the East and have excited fans on SportsHoopla. Obviously there's going to be more threads about the Pacers.

Yeah the last play of an NBA game is like the Hail Mary in football....Anything goes unless you absolutely mug the player or push him to the ground.

IMO this will be a 7 game series again. And I think pacers will win this year in the east. But we will see

When did they become the best team in the East?
Maybe you missed opening night this year?
I believe the banner raising was in Miami, not Indy:noidea:

Excited fans?
There are a handful of Pacer fans here who should be excited about their team because they are legit, but there are many more Laker fans just hoping someone, anyone, can beat the Heat because their team is pretty much unwatchable at times and they have nothing better to do or talk about here.

In order to be the best you have to beat the best in a best of 7 series....We won't know if Indy is the best until late May

Oh, the thug?:L

Beasley has been a poster child off the court and a great addition and teammate on the court.
An actual weapon on a championship caliber team.

Comeback player of the year?

So if Miami had had a firesale in the offseason and your talent left and you had 2 wins this season, you'd be a better team than Indiana? Wins/losses and level of play have nothing to do with it? Is that what you're saying?
