I don't think I'd want to use that unless/until it's a game where Miami could be eliminated. Lebron is an athletic freak, no doubt. He could definitely play the 5 in short stints, but I think that if they tried it too much, it would wear him down and make less effective on offense!! Especially considering how physical the Pacers bigs are!!

Excellent points! I would also add, Hibbert would have him facing potential foul trouble. Lebron like to anticipate block shot opportunities and Hibbert likes to utilize the ball fake in the post.

When you try to mask one problem you create another. Lebron not guarding PG would probably lead to him scoring like 40 points at home. D wade is my favorite player but I dont think he can guard PG beyond the perimeter.

Darn, that's harsh!! Even said "Not only do they not deserve this team, they don't deserve any team"!!

If the Pacers are down 2 possessions or more with under 8 seconds to go, I doubt they'll stay either

Yeah, I don't think either has a strong fanbase which is odd because Pacers/Heat looks to be a solid rivalry

ah well, it has to be said. if the Pacers win today the worrying will begin. and since they're on their home floor today i expect them to take today's game. you heard it here first...

The worrying will begin if they lose both game 3 and 4. Last year with the Pacers full squad and without Bosh, Allen, or Birdman the Heat were down 2-1 and came back to win the series.

Also last year the Heat shot 11% from 3 in the first 3 games before shooting 43% in the final 3 games of the series. The Heat shooters will get it going....It is just a matter of time.

Paul George is 10-13 for 29 points when guarded by LeBron James. James is 18-of-31 for 45 points (8 turnovers) when guarded by George

I would love to see his numbers when guarded by D-Wade....It seems as if he has a tougher time scoring when he is guarded by Wade.

yep, all that happened LAST SEASON. guess we'll know soon enough if there's an instant replay in store...

here's kinda the problem that i have with this statement, though, punchline. is it really the Heat shooting so bad, or is it the direct result of the Pacers playing super "D"? because IF it's a case of the latter you guys got a problem...

 

[RobToxin]

I realize that I am about to seriously enrage the Heat faithful but....

Fuck Dwayne Wade. Fuck that dirty cheap-shotting punk ass bitch!

I rarely condone this but someone needs to take their last string bench warmer and send them in to do one thing: take this punk out. Permanently.

Because the NBA damn sure won't do anything about him.

And it's not like this is the first time he's pulled some cheap-shot bullshit either.

I'll tell ya what, I think game 4 sort of becomes must win for whoever loses tonight, although coming back from down 3-1 is certainly possible. If the Heat are the team that loses, the national media will go over the board insane however.
