    I completely expect Indy to look totally different this series... I wouldn't put any stock in the early struggles...

      I think miami is going to come out and put it too the pacers. I hate trash talking when you haven't back it up by barely squeaking by the hawks and almost going to a game 7 against Washington

          I wouldn't have either, but I also thought the playoffs would wake them up and it didn't.. They're lucky to even be here, with Roy playing this bad they don't even have their advantage anymore.. And I think purposely going to Roy every time to try and pump him up will hurt the rest of the teams game plan.

          PG always shows up against them though.

            Really did not want to see the Pacers again.

            If you are a believer in sports cliches the Pacers definitely have the edge.
            They can play the "team that wants it more" and "nobody believed in us" cards.

            On the court I think it will come down to Hibbert vs. Bosh. Last year Hibbert was Shaq Jr. against the Heat and averaged 22 and 10 in 7 games. If he disappears like he did earlier this playoffs the Pacers have no shot.

            On the Heat side I think Bosh constantly getting abused by Hibbert and West destroyed his confidence against the Pacers. Everyone made a big deal about Pero Antic being a bad matchup for Hibbert. IMO Bosh should be a nightmare against this team. He just needs to stay out of foul trouble and be the spot up shooter many of you despise.

            Should be an interesting matchup, but I have a bad feeling about this.
            Good job! Good effort!

              I'm not worried. Heat in 6.

                I think the length of this series will be determined on how Miami is shooting. If Bosh and the role players can start knocking down shots at a consistent basis, this would definitely stretch the floor (ala the Hawks) and make LeBron and Wade's life a helluva lot easier. In a sense, I find it kind of strange how the Pacers had a tough time matching up with the Hawks yet can go toe-to-toe with the Heat. The Hawks & Heat are somewhat similar in terms of playing small-ball and spreading the offense.

                Also I hoped that Spo was saving some of his offensive sets against the Nets so that he can use them this round, because at times, particularly in Game 4, the Heat's offense was very stagnant and reminded me of the team assembled during the first year.

                Anyway, should be a very physical yet intense series. LETS GO HEAT!!!

                  lol,a 3 day break between game 2 and 3 while every other game of the series just has 1 day break.....

                  I want Miami to win this series. Just let them have the 3 titles,then let Wade,Bosh,Lebron go their separate ways and hope this whole star players teaming up stuff never happens again.

                      Likely not happening, since it's been happening for years.

                        That makes no sense. If they win their third straight title after 4 straight finals appearances why would they want to break apart. "Oh this winning stuff is getting boring, let me try something new!"

                          Maybe they've gone and accomplished their goal, now they can go back out and get max contracts and just go and play close to their home(for Lebron it'd be Cleveland,Bosh it'd be one of the Texas teams I believe). You never know what the plan might be for those 3. Or maybe they'll just sign long term deals and retire together.

                          Imagine if all 3 went to the Lakers.....talk about most hated team in NBA history lol.

                            None of them are going to Toronto if that's what you're hoping to happen so just kill that dream, lol.

                              Of course,cause nobody wants to play for......lol j/k. Obviously not. Durant though...you never know lol.


                              I'm always gonna be hoping Lebron just trolls everyone and goes to Milwaukee. Lets see the media be even bigger bandwagoners and latch onto the Bucks franchise they've been not caring about since the Allen days. Or Minnesota, who've only ever been relevant during KG days.
