Great win by the Pacers. They should be able to win at least one or both of their games in Indiana. -

I know you all would not like to hear this, but I wouldn't mind if the Heat wins the series. I rather see a Celtic-Heat final, with the C's to be ones to beat Miami and avenge last year's playoff loss. If the Pacers win, it would be really weird to see Bird rooting against us. -

Lebron plays about 43 minutes in both game 1 and 2 .... Total fouls called on him? ONE ......One f'n foul in 2 playoff games for a forward. How is that even possible. They beat heck out of each other both games. Wade mashing players and ONE f'n foul for the king. MJ even got a foul or 2 or 3 every game. Kobe even gets a foul or 2 every game. ONE ............... unbelievable -

Some further investigating shows "One foul king" was the Heat's leading rebounder in both games vs Indy also. ONE foul after two games for their top rebounder. IMPOSSIBLE -

Game is not over yet, but the Pacers are currently winning again tonight. I really hope that they can continue to dominate Miami. Nothing better than seeing Miami lose. -

Of all the teams in the Eastern Conference, Indiana was the one team that concerned me. Boston matches up really well with Miami - not so well against Indiana. As much as I can't stand Wade and Lebron, I almost hope that they win the series against the Pacers. After seeing the three games between them, I don't that is going to happen. It's going to be Boston vs. Indiana in the next round.

In Response to Re: pacers punch heat + refs in grill!:Lebron is the most overrated player in NBA history. The best thing Miami could do is trade him.

What's this, year three and still no rings ... wasn't he gonna win 7 with Bosh & Wade? At this pace, they'll be lucky to win one! -

Posted by Kirk6this injury to bosh is really shining a light on how terrible the heat's supporting cast is....they cant score over 75 points without bosh so far. -

I have the same thoughts whenever I see Miami struggling. If they hadn't been so overconfident by declaring that they would win many championships maybe NBA fans wouldn't dislike them so much. -

They put themselves off-side with most NBA fans with their comments after coming together.
Easily my most despised team at the moment because of the overall attitude from the star players there. -

I want to see this series go 6 or 7 and have the winner beat up and worn out.
My knee jerk reaction is to see the Heat go down for the count, but Indy always plays us tuff, and may be more difficult to handle should we advance to the ECF.
If Pacers-Heat goes the distance and is hard fought, and we can beat the Sixers in Games 4 & 5, it would be the best of both worlds for us.
Hope the Celics don't squander what may be a new opportunity poised to happen. -

The Heat will quit the series if they get down in the next game.Everybody harps on LeBron, but DWade is showing himself to be the bigger jerk, pulling a tantrum at his coach tonight. I hope everyone on his pathetic PR firm over at ESPN is drowning in their tears right now. -

I would still dislike them equally. For one how dirty Wade plays. And 2, Lebron is overrated as a star. 3. And how much they complain to the officials and nothing happens to them. 4. Their smuggness even after a loss. 5 They just are not likeable. -

Indy deserves to win. But I really, really want the Heat to come away with the series. The Heat have no inside presence. I am worried about the Bass/West matchup. And Hibbert? Who do we have that comes close? Every matchup is tough for us. With the heat, we can keep going to KG easy. We have the defense-intensive players who can neutralize Lebron/Wade - like Sasha on Lebron (beyond the obvious). And Rondo toys with Chalmers like a cat with a mouse. LETS GO HEAT! -

A couple of other posters also share your sentiments about preferring Miami and I agree too. We have trouble with teams with big dominating centers...hate to bring it up but Lakers have had the edge past couple of years because of Bynum & Gasol. We are last in rebounding & as a jump shooting team need shoot 45-50% at least and our "D" needs cause turnovers but strong rebounding teams can shoot 35-45% but if they get 10-15+ rebounds, these extra chances make up for poor shooting percentages.
I wouldn't have minded playing the Bulls either with or w/o Noah but, I reiterate, Indy frightens me more than Miami because we only really need guard LeBron & Wade. Indy is a more balanced tough and together team and Hibbert, whom I'd like to get as a Celtic next year to play with KG which, I think, would be a better duo tandem that Bynum & Gasol, had 19 points and 18 rebs. The team outbounded the Heat 52-36 or 16 extra chances...insurmontable deficit for King James and Thug Wade. So, I don't want to be accused of being careful what I wish for, but I'll still root for Heat to win.
