Heat vs Pacers, Game 2

Just watched the game tonight and enjoyed it a lot. Really interesting seeing two polar opposite teams backing their own game style to prevail. Reminds me of the '84 LA-Boston finals in that respect.

Stunning end to the 3rd quarter with George beating Lebron off the dribble and throwing the hammer down on the Birdman, before James squared the ledger with a three. I liked the appreciation Lebron showed for George's play. Nothing wrong with that as long as you are both playing to win.

Playmaker Mo, I think you're right that the Heat needs guys like Allen, Battier, Bosh, etc hitting open looks for them to win the series. I think they will though and that will probably see them home over the Pacers.

Indy are playing very well right now, but their whole game relies on them getting Hibbert and West good looks near the basket and after half-time when the Heat's D ramped up, they really struggled to consistently feed it into the post.

With George Hill looking like he is struggling with that injured toe and only DJ Augustin as his backup, you have to be worried about the Pacers backcourt holding up. Paul George can only do so much and if he is forced to play point guard for most of the series they will be in trouble.

I hope they take the Heat down, but I think they'll lose in 6 games. What will be very interesting though is if the Pacers can get a quality PG in the off-season. They have Danny Granger to dangle as bait and will have a little bit of wiggle room under the cap...

Isaac and LanceUppercut nailed it.

I loved the acknowledgement from LeBron and Paul George. Class shown by both players in the midst of a great battle.

(I wonder how many LBJ haters consider Paul George 'soft' after that...)

Shane Battier and Ray Allen will have to start hitting their open looks in order for the HEAT to steal a game back IMO.

Awesome game..

Pacers look good with hibbert playing great as gives them so many options.
Stevenson tried giving it back to Miami for lebron to give it back to indy.

All I can say is thanks sportsbet as 4 to 1 for a indy win was great odds.

Indiana are close to being scary good.
