Lebron with the finest performance in the playoffs so far: 40 points, 17 boards, 9 dimes, 2 steals, 2 blocks. No one since MJ has put up that statline in 1997.
now lebron has 40/18/9. wat a huge choking failure he is. he has to be the worst nba player ever to not be able to get that last assist for an easy triple double
the pacers D didn't look quite as good when they couldn't just leave everyone wide open and not give up any points.
It took amazing games from both Wade and James to win it. The Pacers are still bigger and deeper. I'm not saying they are going to win the series, but I think it's silly to count them out of this.
You would have to think so. This has to be a deflating loss for them. They were up 2-1 and really had a chance to run away with this one to take a commanding series lead.
Good game for Lebron I think need Wade to that every game to win though. To win a title for sure. That is not saying Lebron is terrible. Wade needs to have big games for the Heat to win and he did.
I still believe the Pacers can win the series if they remember what made them successful to start with. The effort and intelligence just weren't there today. If Hibbert and David West didn't go missing, they could have pulled it out anyway. Now that Wade is back, Pacers need at look to Game 2 as a blueprint for Game 5. Everybody has to lay it on the line. No shortcuts. LeBron showed why he is the MVP. He was Superman today, although the Pacers' poor decisions on defense let him score more efficiently than he should have.
Yup those 3 Chalmers 3 in the first quarter was HUGE to open up the floor. If the Heat role players make their open shots, the Pacers have no business in this series, even without Bosh. But still in this game, they still miss a ton. IT was all Lebron/Wade for 97% of this game offensively. Role players gotta step up or Pacers can still take this.
It was over for Indiana before the series started. It was over for Indiana when Miami won game 1. Give me a break. Like another poster said, it's pretty boneheaded to just say it is over, when there's at least 2 more games to play.
