Was a great game nick...once you see the replay you'll understand what I mean when I say they took over like a mofo. The shots they were hitting were tough. More importantly they've got 3 days to rest, get Haslem back and maybe Bosh by then and give Wade and James some time to get over the bumps and bruises.

Rockin the Lou Williams jersey too. Street ballers.

Yeah it was the attitude but I think he has had to adjust that a bit after realising what's out there now (overseas) and age, should be happy coming off the bench getting back into it.

One step closer then the Pacers are.

Awesome game from Wade, totally unstoppable, decent game by Lebron, played 2nd fiddle very well, and as for Indiana...GREAT SEASON. 5th best record in NBA for a team projected to finish somewhere in the middle of the pack. All young guys, so look to next season for further improvement, and a feeling amongst the players that they do belong in the playoffs, and to look further than just one series win next season. Good luck to Miami, you should be able to get past either Celtics or 76'ers, but cant see a series win in your future against either OKC or Spurs, unless Wade can play like that again 4 more times (at least) in the Finals.

Wade. What a gun.

When you realize that guys who came in the same draft as AI like Nash and Kobe are playing at a high level in the league, you realize that AI still has got some mileage left in him. Derek is still playing, Jermaine is contributing..goddamnit Grant Hill from 2 drafts earlier is playing and he's got effed up ankles.

Wouldnt have taken Nostradamous to predict that, either at the start of the season or at the start of the series, but Pacers can absolutely hold their head up high after a great over achieving season...where as if Miami doesnt win it all = FAIL.

Great call, (though JO "contributing" may be slightly exaggerating things). AI certainly did take a beating nearly every time he played, wheras Grant Hill had like 5 years off in the middle, so that may count for something. Just shows the level of greatness that Nash and Kobe bring to the table.

Philly are playing great. Better competition for the Heat - full strength 76ers or banged up Celtics?

Full-strength 76ers. Both offenses suck balls though.

disagree on both points but all good.

problem for Boston has been injuries and inconsistency. They can put up numbers!

The few days rest before game 7 will be the difference in this series.

exzibit3 · May 25, 2012

Banged up Celtics still more dangerous than Philly Imo. Pierce, KG, Allen and Rondo are big time players who when provoked and challenged, they play at their best. Philly is playing good but are they Finals worthy? I don't think they're there yet so you gotta go with Miami or Boston to make the Finals.
Miami showed some heart this series down 2-1 then rattling off 3 straight wins. Western Conference going to be tough if Miami makes the Finals. OKC are as good in transition as Miami and they play better defense Imo and Spurs are deeper this year with healthy players and are a well oiled machine.

DWade at start of post game presser

"Let me just start off by sayin, I know theyre killin me in the studio for my pants, they just mad they can't pull it off"

Harsha_12 · May 25, 2012

I'm confused, people Don't expect Miami to win and if they don't, hows that really a fail?

That's the easiest call out of all the garbage that's been spoken the last two or so pages. Here's a reminder,

"not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4" etc

drobfan8 · May 25, 2012

I'm sick of hearing all the "banged up" talk also. Blake Griffen and Chris Paul used it. Most players would have something sprained or not right this time of year. Wade has lead to it plenty of times. But now can score 41???

They all seem to mention it after a loss or a bad game too.

I'm not sure what the Celts or 76ers could do against Miami. It seems Indy have stoked the fire though.

Hopefully someone can challenge their depth.

I don't think the Champions coming out of the West is a sure thing either. Like I've said a few times, my biggest fear is the Spurs do make the finals and lose to Miami. I would HATE that.

THABEET!!!!!

lukesicari · May 25, 2012

Is there any games tomorrow? It says Celtics Sixers is on Saturday in America and that's Sunday AUS time. Just seems strange that we will have a day with no games on!

GarnettFan4Life · May 25, 2012

Sunday Monday our time yep NO GAMES!!!!
