I like the Pacers too.

If they play their cards right, they could be the best team in the East in a few years when Wade's body inevitably gives out and Lebron getting a little older.
The Pacers are the Bulls except healthy and without a Derrick Rose.

Yea, for the most part.

And I don't think Granger being around would help them much, him and George are redundant and I think Granger's presence would limit George's effectiveness.

Miami has come out very sloppy tonight. Already down by 10.

In the East with how it stands now?

Yea, but I like the Spurs if there is anybody to beat Miami this year.

I also think Memphis would stand a better chance than Indiana.
:lol

How it stands now? Of course, but I see you wanting to work in a mention of a Rose led Bulls team as the best match up.

What a bullshit technical. How the f do you call that tech on just Young.

I know it's LeBron but that's a double technical if anything.

Refs are definitely pro Miami.

Pacers size and physical play is going to cause Miami problems in this whole series.

It won't be enough to win, but those expecting Miami to win easily tonight are finding out that the close matchup in game 1 was not a fluke.

Pacers are legit.

Very good response from Indiana out of the timeout.

Nasty stuff from George.

Beats Lebron off the dribble then dunks it over Birdman with the foul.

What a great series this has been.

I really hope Pacers can win this one tonight so that this series goes longer. It's been great to watch.

I think we can finally put to rest all the criticism about LeBron's closing skills. Regarding the final few minutes of games, his game has gotten infinitely better.

It reminds me of those old Knicks/Bulls playoff series.

Pacers have a similar style to Riley's Knicks and the Heat are like the Bulls.

Pacers are waiting too long to get into their offense.

I said it before and I'll say it again, something happened to him before game 6 against Boston last year.

I don't know if he felt he had nothing to lose since any and everyone poked fun at his lack of closing skills and heart and just decided to say F it, or what......but since that game, the guy has been a completely different player in crunch time and he is far more aggressive and assertive in big games.

That was his only weakness, and now the guy has none.

Yup.

And like those Bulls, this Heat team will win because they are flat out better, but I want the series to go as long as it can and the only way for it to go past 5 games is for Indiana to steal a game in Miami.

Lose tonight, and this one is over in 5.

I'd LMFAO if Vogel benches Hibbert again to try to prove a point.

What a train wreck of a possession by the Pacers. They had a chance to ice it and they pissed down their legs.

What the hell is wrong with this Pacer team and their inability to go too long without turning the ball over?

I know they are playing Miami who are a very good defensive team, but that is no excuse for the Pacers to be THIS sloppy through the first 2 games.

A bucket there, and that could've been enough to seal the game.

Wow...Lebron with turnovers on back to back possessions and Indiana will win this as long as they hit their free throws.

Wow! Look what happens. Hibbert's in the game and detours Lebron from going into the lane, helping to cause a turnover. Who knew?
