no bosh changes the dynamic of this series. the heat role players are garbage so it's pretty much the lebron and wade show now.
Yup. LBJ guards Granger, Granger doesn't even dare to put the ball on the floor and just shoot open jumpers or pass. Shane guards him, and Granger attacks and gets to the line 2 times. So funny.
Heat are in serious trouble. They won't make the Finals without Bosh. If they did, LeBron and Wade will be exhausted and unable to carry them over OKC or the Spurs. They need a 3rd option. Based on your prognosis, today's game is much more important to the Heat than Pacers. If Bosh misses the rest of this series, Pacers will prevail if they win today. But they can't afford to go ice cold when the game is on the line
with no bosh the pacers are the favorite. if this were japan, chalmers and haslem would have to kill themselves after today. they have been awful. heat most likely will lose this game with no rebounding or 3 point shooting.
They can beat the Pacers without Bosh, win or lose today. LBJ and Wade will take a much bigger role offensively. Boston or Indy aren't good enough. But they will get destroyed by Spurs/OKC b/c those teams not only are good but deep.
IF Pacers can't win today, they won't win another game. Both LBJ/Wade are way off offensively, no Bosh for a half... This is their chance.
I don't think they get past Boston without Bosh. Boston is and has been the only threat to come out of the East since Rose went down. Those guys can still play and Pierce still is super clutch and going against Lebron excites that guy more than anything.
