The Pacers are reeling, blaming the refs, and throwing each other under the bus (see Paul George and Lance Stephenson).
Bosh has been trash for most of the series, but it was only a matter of time before they started leaving him wide open so that he can knock down the jump shots we all know he's capable of knocking down. I just hope that level of play continues.Yep, when the PAcers beat the Wizards in game 6 I immediately texted my friend and said, Heat in 5.
For some reason, I let Game 1 change my thoughts on it and think it could go 6-7.
But sadly, it looks like my gut prediction was right. There's nothing I hate worse than seeing a crappy series when I have no dog in the fight and seeing the Heat go to another finals app.
They are playing very well. Ray Allen, man I hate him, but man he is clutch.
And look at Bosh finally playing like he deserves the money he is making

Bosh is my least favorite of the Big 3. I would love to trade him and a pick for Kevin Love (should Love accept a slight decrease in pay for the chance to play for a championship contender). I agree that he's not worth what he's making. But that he draws Hibbert out of the paint is a huge reason why the Pacers simply don't match up well with the Heat.Yeah its amazing to think Bosh used to be a 20/10 post guy back in Toronto. His play style has changed so much with LBJ. He's not close to worth what he's making in Miami.
Its easy for him to be left wide open when Hibbert, who is back on mental case mode, is 'covering' you.

Heat are the only team in the league that have 3 players that can score off the dribble in Lebron, Wade and Bosh. It will be interesting series (unless Pacers get a miracle). I think Heat 3-peat and if the guys come back they are the favorites again.
If next year the Pacers can get a point guard and have Hill coming off the bench they can compete with the Heat.
I disagree, Bosh cant score for **** off the dribble. He's only a spot up shooter now. Even when he was 20/10 he scored in the post and not on the dribble.
Also, I do not think getting another point puts the Pacers over the hump. They need a 15-10 2blk consistency from Hibbert, a consistent and better George and a shooting guard who doesn't talk **** and light a fire under Miami then lay an egg himself
He's struggled against Indy, but he's a skilled big man. He's the 3rd option because LeBron and Wade are two of the greatest of all time, which means his mumbers are lower. But he can hit the open jumper and if a guy plays him tight he can take the hole like a 3. In terms of big men, he's the best in the East since Howard left.
When he goes to the hole hard, he can. But sometimes, he's just way, way, way too soft. It seems that he only goes hard when people talk bad about him or the games he's been having.He's struggled against Indy, but he's a skilled big man.
