Bron is just special man. Whole heat team is clicking right now, the best game they have played in months imo
 
Dwyane Wade should be the star of the NBA's flopping video.

You're a 2 time Olympian, 2 time NBA champ, Finals MVP, all-star, play the damn game the right way.
 
Vogel better come up with something defensively, or this will get ugly.

Search party for PG24???
Indy never plays zone cause they don't practice it, so that's out.

D West is too slow, so that's out.

Your only option is doubling Bron and praying Miami misses a bunch of open shots. Good luck

Paul George isn't assertive enough, which allows them to play Ray Allen on him of all people.

David West is keeping this team afloat. The Heat role players will get open looks all game if there's movement. I couldn't understand why there was literally zero the first 2 games.

BTW, very few teams, if any can matchup with Wade and Bron in the post. Led them to a title last season.

That is true but in this game the Pacers are letting EVERYONE go off. You have to take out at least 1 of those problems. You either let Lebron and Wade kill your or the roll players. Everybody is killing the pacers. They are getting outhustled as well.
 
Heat need to sign a legit 7 foot shot blocker in the offseason, someone like Haseem Thabeet would strive on the Miami Heat roster.

One thing makes me wanna say Thabeet has worse hands than Asik, but something tells me you may be right. You would think with the Heat's roster you'd be able to insert a random young 7 footer and they'd be even better, but I don't know. Even with the talent they have, it's pathetic they keep ignoring that like it's not a problem.
 
If you noticed, Miami hasn't been hitting the Indy pick and rolls hard, staying home. Has resulted in more shots being taken later in the clock for them and less movement. Also, they've been switching how they're defending Indy's bigs, some fronting, then playing behind and relying on weakside help.

Paul George needs to attack more, very hesitant player. :{
 
Only thing I can think of is having either West or Hibbert set picks for PG24 so he can get some easy drives to the rim or something. Can't be ghost during a home game out of all places.
 
If Miami continues to put Hibbert in screen & rolls, and runs the offense through Lebron on the block, goodnight Indiana.

That means open 3's for Bosh, and they'll have to double Lebron who is going to find the open shooters.
 
That's because Paul George ain't a superstar
Bingo. His lapses kill this team. When its not a stupid turnover, its his lack of offensive awareness. Ray Allen is checking him and he'd rather be hesitant instead of blowing by him.

Vogel's lack of adjustments are reflecting in how this game is being played. Miami put their imprint from the jump and never handed it over.

Thabeet would be a awesome pick up.......... His only job will be to block shots and put the ball back or rebound. I question his hustle though.

Dream pick up is Oden.....
 
the heat put up 70 and shooting a high pct. if the pacers can at least get them down to their avg, then they can close the gap. the heat are getting great shots and just hitting.
might have to start doubling bron when he posts and live with everyone else.
if you told indy that they would get 56, they would take it.
