    Why are the Pacers letting the Heat dribble..........

    ......... shot clock down, down 7 with 39 seconds left?

    To me that screams "we quit"

    Agreed. Had the under so I was glad they did not start fouling. But wtf, you have to foul in that situation unless you have given up.

    Pacers don't have the 4th quarter strength to beat anyone relevant in the league, esp against the Heat.

    Their closer is a pussy that is matched up with Lebron, no fukking chance.

    Pacers pick and roll defense on LBJ and Wade was horrible. After they would turn the corner off the pick the Pacers would give them way too much space. They pretty much let Wade and LBJ do whatever they wanted. Good luck beating the Heat if you let those two guys pretty much do whatever they want.

    Heat was more worried with leaving Battier and Miller open for 3's. They actually did a pretty good job denying those from the Heat.

    Hawks did it against the celtics with even more time on the clock in a closer game. infuriating

    I'd rather be beat by Battier, Chalmers, and Miller than LBJ and Wade. Obviously it is easier said than done, but if the Pacers play defense on those two guys like they did in game 1, they don't stand a chance. You can't let LeBron turn the corner on a pick and roll and have free space. They pretty much let LeBron have an 18 to 15 footer, or have the choice to gain momentum and drive the lane.

    I had Pacers+8 and over 187. Fukking brutal! Like 6 points between both teams last 5 mins of the game. Makes me want to start playing keno or the lottery
