    Not good. I want Miami to lose but not this way.

    If the Pacers get by the Heat and beat the Sixers/Celtics winner, I'll root for them to beat OKC (fat chance I know).

    They have a real Finals opportunity looking at them in the face of they can handle the pressure and not choke.

    Prepare to be surprised. They won't win those games.

    Without Bosh, they have ZERO chance of beating OKC. OKC is balling right now, and they're way too DEEP for the Heat. It'll be over in 5 at most.

    Without Bosh. they still have a chance v. the Spurs simply b/c the Spurs have nobody who can match with Bron/Wade. But the depth would just tire Bron/Wade out. But that will be a long series.

    But the Heat SHOULD make the Finals without Bosh. The starpower of Bron/WAde should get them through Indy. And either Boston/Philly is just trash.

    But the good thing is it's only a strain. Hopefully it's mild. We will know more as we enter the ECF. If there are no rumblings of Bosh coming back by then, he is most likely done for the season.

    But injuries are part of the game. It is what it is, and there shouldn't be excuses.

    Either way, OKC is the favorite right now in my eyes.

    I have to admit that I'm impressed with hibbert's progress. He knows how to use his weight and he devoloped a nice little unstoppable hook shot that few have. He also knows how to pass.

    Hibbert, Gasol, Bynum, these guys like playing volleyball with themselves :p Too tall.

    Granger & George need to step up for Indy.

    Not sure if Indy has an offense or not. Dribble dribble dribble. Credit Miami's Defense.

    I really hope Indiana can snap out of this. They look awful out there, and I'm cheering for them to win the series.

    Indy has no chance against the heat. Sad to say but Boston might be the only team in the East to knock out Miami if Bosh is still out.

    Pacers are a joke now that they actually have a chance to do something. They aren't ready for the moment. You would think the Bulls series last year might have prepared them.

    If they stay close enough, maybe something will change in the 2nd half and give them a chance.

    Even with the injuries, Heat will easily make it into the Finals, because the other three teams are terrible. Still, I guess that we're once again going to see the WCF become the default Finals.
