Spurs could be out of action for over a week and a half. Miami should win the series but wouldn't be surprised if they went to 7

Think Miami got a wake up call in Game 2, reckon it could be over in 5

Indiana shoot 50% to 40%, win the rebounding by a mile, the opposition's best player fouls out with a minute left and it still feels like they only had a narrow win on their own floor. Massively tough series with the only game one team had a relatively easy win Miami's game 3 W. This is what we've been waiting for.

Spurs did their finals series a lot easier than I expected. The extra break will help them enormously in the finals IMHO just as it should end up helping Miami when games 6 and possibly 7 roll by.

Tight game 5 between Miami and Indiana, 44-40 at the half with Indiana in front. LeBron then takes over in the third and Miami take a commanding 13 point lead leading into the 4th. James stat line for the 3rd: 16 points, 7/10 from the field, 2/4 from 3, 4 rebounds and 4 assists and a block. Haslem hit 5/5 while the rest of the team combined for 4 points. Only blot on his copybook for the quarter was missing both free throws. Given he also had 2 cracks at a 3 pointer on the one possession he would probably feel like he should have done better. :shock:

Here's a statement about where Bosh and Wade are at the moment. Down by 13 at the start of the 4th and needing to make a run, both are on the bench while Anthony and Miller, who have hardly been used all season get minutes.

James filling the boxes as usual, but suffering badly from not having much in the way of support.

Bosh and Wade 4-18 between them
Looks like Game 7 coming up

Made a run early in the 4th, but couldn't sustain it and Indiana win it comfortably enough. LeBron is a sensational player, but even he'll find it hard to be their best defender on one end and their entire offense at the other. Andersen back for game 7 will help but either Wade or Bosh find a way to help of someone else plays a big offensive role.

It has been a fabulous series. A massive game 7 with some fireworks and Wade and Bosh at least contributing would be a great way to cap the series, whichever way game 7 falls.

They would. The break is probably the thing they're enjoying the most but they would have been more worried about Miami since they really have no matchup for James and James can effectively defend Parker when needed. To see Wade and Bosh struggling as they are it makes Miami far less dangerous when you can realistically win 4 of the 5 positions on a nightly basis. I think they would be looking at the fact they match up pretty well with Indiana and feel that would give them the edge there, as well as having home court.

I'm not sure who I want to it this year. LeBron is my favourite player and I always like to see the best players ending up on top, it would also be one of the greatest individual performances if he could somehow drag an average support cast over the line. Indiana have never won one and I think for a basketball heartland state to have never won it all is unjust. It would also be a just reward for Larry Bird's tenure as an exec as he has done just a sensational job. While I think a 5th ring would bring Duncan to the level I feel his greatness deserves. He (IMHO) makes a compelling case for the greatest power forward of all time and this would just about cement that.

Definately remember those series but the Heat are still our most hated rivals by a long way.
