Hill on Wade? WTF?!
Sure, but their ball-handlers, which is generally the root of decision-making and passing, are absolutely horrible and all 3 of them(Hill, Stephenson, Augustine) all have low basketball IQ and limited guard skills, tbh..Quote:

Other than Green and maybe Bonner, the Spurs 3 point shooting hasn't been that good.
I can already imagine Gary Neal missing open 3's while leaving Allen/Battier/Cole wide open.
The Pacers have the pieces to beat the Heat, I'm just seeing a very poorly coached team.
Neal and Bonner shouldn't even be active against the Heat.
Yep, I was thinking the damn same thing when they were showing their bench. Those guys are pathetic! This is the NBA though.Quote:

But tbh, if the opportunity was there, you guys would play for the Heat.
Allen has played horribly , Allen is their tmac..

Indiana is not that good. All they do is iso and pass the ball to Hibbert and West down low. No plays, no real PG's, nothing. George Hill is not a great passer, Augustine is pretty much just a 3 point shooter and Stephenson is an idiot. Sometimes even Paul George tries way too much. Also their bench is pathetic. Yes they play good defense, but their offense is hard to watch. Other then their 2 bigs I don't see a lot of threats for Miami. After all that, they are still a pretty good team, but let me just say that I think 6 teams in west are better than them.
Indiana a nice likable little team but they have nothing to do in a conference finals. The east is so weak with injuries to Rose, Rondo and Granger not helping to make it a competitive conference. In the west, Indiana would be first round material and nothing more.
Given that difference in level between conferences, it's crazy to have Spurs entering the finals with more rest and not more game played than Miami.
For reference, west teams have a combined 262-188 record against east teams this season.
Sounds like memphis...Although conley would make a difference in this Indiana team.Quote:

Lebron is left handed if I remember correctly even those he shoots righty so he probably feels more comfortable going left. Pacers are so inconsistent its sad, Hibbert in the post on every possession or at least give him a touch to create space and an open shot. Stephenson is Indy's Gary Neal, he'll try to take over while neglecting open shooters or better looks. They play decent defense but Vogel has a tendency to do stupid shitty things to there lineup. Never go small against Miami and never intentionally play small. Miami has length at every position and they can hit shots if left open.
good stuff. we've had some stuff go our way, but have also been primed and ready to take advantage of the blessings. it is great that we can get some serious rest since the Finals will be balls to the wall.Quote:

even if the pacers win this game, theres just no chance for them to win the series
You think that is something that can be exploitable a la Zack Randolph?Quote:

If we end up playing Miami Lebron will probably try to spread the floor and drive or come off screens for open shots. I see him playing the 4 and making Tiago or Tim creep out of the paint.Quote:

George Hill...what an idiot. That was the softest attempt at finishing at the rim that I've ever seen...
