Looks like Miami is in trouble. Which means Spurs are in trouble.

:lol Spurs fan cliff jumping for the Heat.

Indiana can take this series. I don't see miami playing with as much desire anymore and Indiana has enough to get past miami this year.

IF the Spurs play like they did against the Mavs in Game 7 and Portland in Games 1-3, 5, the Spurs will win this Series regardless what the refs do. That of course unless we have another game 3 and 4 like the Mav '06 series where they shot 99 fts over two games. But since the Donaghy incident, I have failed to witness such a blatant display of BS favoritism (cheating more like it) by the refs.

Yes, they still do it in spurts but not on that Scale anymore. Just like they try in Game 1 against the Spurs in the 3rd quarter. After about 6-7 minutes of it, they stopped. Before it would have carried on til the end of the game.

Exactly. If Miami wins the 2nd, we are gonna have the defending champion, with HCA.
Lets wait and see what happens...

The cHeat are 16-3 after losing game 1 tbh

I could actually see the heat struggling this series. Indiana looks galvanized and outside of LeBron I don't see anyone on the Heat team who is playing well. Bosh has fallen off and Wade looks at the end of his tether. Going to be tough for them to beat Indy let alone the Spurs in the Finals.

How are the Heat in trouble after game 1? They'd only be in trouble if they also lost game 2. . .and game 3 or 4.

The Pacers aren't that good.

No. The NBA always find the way to make the show.

If the Finals are MIA-SAS again, they'll promote that like "The champions rematch" "Two teams destined to meet in the Finals"

If OKC-IND they'll say "Young Blood battling for the Glory"

If MIA-OKC "The King vs the MVP" "MVPs throne"...

Even if IND-SAS "The experience vs the Talent" "Duncan and Parker vs their apprentices..." "The rising Stars war..PG vs Sugar K" (well, maybe not the last) but...I really can see some stuff about Duncan/Hibbert and Parker as Hill's mentor...

The refs screw job thing, after seeing the Nets get jobbed to give the heat advantages toward the end of two games, we wonder about aging superstars getting respect in regards to calls. I understand one call can be missed but in both games it was 3 or 4 on both sides of the ball. All would have been fine as either fouls or no calls, but it has to be consistant on both ends it cant be no calls when the other team has the ball and fouls when the heat do.

ehh they both would be down a game with an even amount of home and road games left.

According the ESPN poll, most want to see OKC/Miami. Last year it was overwhelming, every state wanted to see Spurs/Heat. Every state.

Losing one on the road at the beginning is alot better than dropping the game one at home, you basically lose HC and have to go get it back. You do have the same road and home games left if it goes 7 though you are correct. You essentially have to get back that HC though as I said.

Good win.

OKC and Miami sucks as a whole, they never get up to play and seem to play scared vs the Heat.

This
Most want OK City over the Spurs.

They want to see Durant and James, the top two players in the league in the finals.

Pacers play better on the road, they'll close this out 4-1
