If its Spurs vs Heat Part 2....the Spurs have a good shot at taking them down this year.

Also consider that Mike Miller is no longer a part of the Heat...so they have one less 3 point threat

agreed that it took the heat a lot to take down the spurs and that its a different series this time around, however its pretty much the exact same 2 teams facing each other (if they do) with the exception that we don't have miller. Also remember the spurs cruised last year to the finals where the heat had a really tough 7 game series vs indy and were tired from a second full nba season.

i still think if they face each other; and out of the west the team with the best chance to beat the heat is the spurs, the heat will come out winning again.

I think the clips have a good shot too honestly. They are a really good team this year.

i don't know man, the way the spurs played last night I've never seen them play THAT good, but then again i've never seen the clippers play as good as they played OKC the other day, we will see how they do tonight.

As if the Heats don't have enough 3 point threats ie Bron, Bosh, Chalmers, Ray, Beasley, Cole, Jones, Lewis, and Battier.

Just because you can make a 3...doesnt mean your a 3 point threat.

I agree. Half of those guys aren't genuine 3 pt threats. Not in the same class as Mike Miller. Of coarse Ray is one of the best shooters of all time and James Jones is also a threat but often he doesn't even make it onto the court. The rest of the guys can all hit the 3 but they aren't what I call "specialists".

I still think Heat will win it all but they will need guys like Bosh, Battier and Chalmers to hit the outside shot to open up the court for Bron and Wade. 3peat.

Except tonight . . .

Hibbert w/ 28 points and 9 boards to boot.

And Bynum was injured and inactive.

[ny325]

Finally, there was a Roy Hibbert sighting in Indiana. Now be consistent.

Durant really launched on that one - what is he made of, carbon fiber?

See that's okay. He only averaged 11 points during the regular season. The Pacers will be just fine if he continues to protect the rim, alter shots, and pull down rebounds. Any scoring is just a bonus.

The Wizards aren't going to have much success if Indiana can continue to hold them to around 82 points.

The scoring needs to come from Paul and Lance, who both had unusually poor shooting performances in Game 2. But I can tell you after being at all the home playoff games, these past two games had an entirely different feel than the Atlanta games.

So do I. Which is why I actually hope the Heat beat Brooklyn.

I'm more worried about Wall and Beal. It's just disheartening when we get a 6-9 point lead and they erase it with two threes on consecutive possessions.

you guys actually lucked out ariza wasn't knocking down 3s otherwise those 28pts hibbert put up would have been for nothing, indy only won by like 2 or 4 points, its going to be a long series for indiana.

honestly i rather the heat face washington instead of indiana because indy is a tough matchup for miami.

[JohnSprm69]

aaaaand miami solves the nets

2 down 2 to go.

4. And yeah it'll be long because we're not playing scrubs like the Nets.
