Left hand, D Wade.

wow. Interesting miss.

Wade lying on the floor trying to get a foul when he clearly was not fouled

WTF was that.

Indy holds on. Series should be fun.

hell of a start to this one. The east is setting up to be a grunt this round, while after the late game I'm sure the west is setting up to be a coast.

Can't think of a more unlikeable team than the heat.

Surely lebron or wade should be taking that shot, unless someone else is wide open. ..meh suck it miami

Really amazing how many key players have gone down recently in the East.
Rose
Dwight Howard
Lin & Amare
Bosh
Ray Allen (he's back now)

Noah too (not that I'm bitter haha)

It's pretty nuts that Lebron lead the Heat every stat except for blocks, which he was tied.

He didn't lead in last second shots taken that could have tied the game!

Wade mad about the Pacers over-celebrating? Hahahahaha

Maybe he should push one of them from behind.

Maybe he should wildly fall on the floor after initiating contact and complain about not getting the call.

Maybe he should start motioning a foul call (slapped on the elbow) to the ref on Chalmers's final shot even though the defender (Jones?) wasn't within 2 feet of Chalmers.

Not a huge fan of Wade.

I saw that too UMich

What would the Heat look like with Pop, Karl, Thibs, or even someone like Brooks or Rivers?

Spoelstra does more harm to this team than good.

Whether Lebron should have ignored the playcall (Shaq's contention) or did the right thing by following the plays as called (Chuck's opinion), Spoelstra was pretty stupid for doing anything but calling plays for Lebron late.

Give him a pick at the top and put shooters in the corners. Odds are he'll end up with a layup, but if he doesn't he'll find the open shooters. Absolutely amazing that the Heat have the best player in the world but Spoelstra calls plays for Wade and Chalmers. He's outsmarting himself (not a taxing achievement, apparently) by trying to use Lebron as a decoy. It's like when Fran didn't have Jorvorskie Lane in the backfield on short yardage goal line situations.

Meh, even with Bosh out the rest of the series, I don't see Indiana taking this past 6 games.

I'm thinking they will crumble under the pressure at home at least once in the next two games, lose game 5 at Miami, and get finished off in game 6.

Their only chance is to get BOTH game 3 and 4 at home to take a 3-1 lead.

good game so far. Miami has missed a handful of easy looks in this 2nd quarter.

Heat getting abused in the 3rd so far. They have bricked so many wide open 3's.

The Heat's lack of inside presence is really hurting them (obviously).

That and Battier can't hit the broad side of a barn.

I love this game. Absolutely HATE the Heat.

Pacers in 6.

oh, and Wade is destroying this team.

Spoelstra is done if they don't win the ship. He has done less with more than mike brown and mike brown is bad bad. at least mike brown was smart enough to iso Lebron at the end of games.

how the **** did Granger think that's a "cheap shot" by extending the elbow?

was that not a clear path?

As far as the Heat not winning this year...if they were smart they'd dump Spoelstra AND shop Wade. LBJ and Bosh work better together anyway, and they could use that money from Wade to build real depth.

But of course that would never happen...too many egos involved that put this all together.

Pacers are pretty much disrespecting the Heat. I've seen Paul George let DWade take two wide open jumpers, didn't even attempt to play defense. Mario Chalmers was just given a wide open jumper.

All bricks. I love it.

Vogel needs to put the starters back in. He shouldn't worry about minutes. They get a two day break between the next game.

Pacers in five. Talent =/= Team

Hibbert having a game.

I swear Chalmers' favorite move in the paint is to drive and pretend to trip to get to the foul line. That's twice tonight.

Where's your LeBron now?

Heat won't win any games getting 5 points from wade and 0 from bosh.
