The Pacers are the new GS Warriors, tbh.![]()
If not for Vogel's stupid decision to remove Hibbert, Pacers could have easily gone home with a 2-0 lead. I cannot understand posters' nuthugging the Heat in every opportunity in this forum. It's pretty obvious that they struggle against big lineups with above-average defense. Not only that, they get picked apart too easily in PnRs. Their last line of defense is either Lebron or Wade
The Heat rely too much on turnovers to generate easy baskets. Without it, they have to rely on Lebron almost exclusively to generate points. Remember, this is the same ing team that lost a game against the ing Bulls last series. The 2011 Mavs or 2009-2010 Lakers would on this Heat team any day.

Explain.
heat are following the spurs 2nd round path imho. GNSFs said the same after the warriors won game 2 and tied the series, but i believe it was the spurs that ended up winning the series if i remember correct. spurs-warriors game one was also a hard-fought one and the spurs won it with horse luck. when the warriors handily won game two, most GNSFs predicted the warriors would win the series, but the final result would turn out to be the opposite.
Pacers are a better defensive team than GSW. And the point of the thread is the Pacers should've been up 2-0.
Because the same exact type of thread was started when The Spurs and The GS series tied 1-1. "Warriors should have been up 2-0." That's why.![]()
Youre right TBH!
Miami has no answer for Hibbert!
Exactly, Rogue. I wasn't one of those cliff-jumpers, though.![]()
Last year:
I hate all these 'should-have-been' takes. If it should have happened it would have happened, isn't that obvious? Pacers had control of Game 1 until the last 2 seconds and the mistake was costly enough to lose them the game since it was compe ive the whole way. I hate the Heat more than anyone but the series is fairly 1-1 the only way I'd say otherwise is if the refs made a huge blunder.
GNSFs (or some insignificant laker fan im not sure) said basically the same (the warriors should've been 2-0) when the series was tied 1-1. both games were close enough and could've gone either way, and the pacers should be satisfied that they've stolen a game as well as the HCA from miami imho.
GS aint as good a defensive team as pacers but they're better offensively which cancels it off
not really since defense wins games imo
Pacers are nothing like the Warriors. Not even close.
The Heat should be up 2-0 just as easy or easier. That late foul by Wade was a bailout play for the Pacers anyhow as was the last second 30' 3 from George. If the Heat play their normal game, they win both games easily.
Chicago made it 1-1 on Miami's homecourt, too...and then Miami woke up again.
Frankly, I won't be impressed until they win 3 games in this series. And even then, I still expect Miami to advance...but at least they are making them work for it.
And some people wanted to see Miami curbstomp the KnicksPacers Heat series has been compe ive so far.
Pacers will leave Indiana with the series at 2-2
ECF is likely going 6 or 7.
If the Spurs close out the Grizz in 4 or 5, they'll be waiting around forever for the Finals to begin.![]()
If the Pacers make it Spurs have the championship in a bag.
You can't compare the Pacers to the Bulls. The situations are different. The Bulls won game 1 and then basically quit after game 1. The Pacers could have won game 1 and this could be 2-0 for them. Bottom line: the Pacers are better than the Bulls and they're proving it to everyone.
More time to get T-mac up to speed!![]()
You never know. If IND had one the first game than maybe Miami comes out laser focused and blows them out in game 2. At least they got the split.
