Right before TO, Ind had West/Hibbert out and the Heat had only one big. It leaves West covering Allen or Cole but on the other end Lebron covers West.
I'll say this much: if Miami is having this much trouble with Indiana, do they honestly think they will have more luck with San Antonio or OKC?
Duncan/Splitter is not as scary as West/Hibbert. Neither is Perkins/Collison or Perkins/Ibaka. It's easier to downsize against those big lineups. It's harder here. Matchups
Ouch. Paul George gets hit head in the twice (and doesn't look to be intentional) by Wade. Wade also seemed to hurt one of legs on the play too
Yeah they downgraded it. I'm glad they review flagrant fouls now. A lot of times it's just hard to stay up after getting fouled in mid air. That doesn't mean it's flagrant, even if it might look it
Breen just said George hit a pair of free throws. He actually split the pair. Indiana is finished here.
What the hell kind of game plan does not give Stephenson the ball that entire last half of the quarter? Wtf
Heh nice hug by Butler on Allen. Gave them a chance. Even with 22,7,5. Lebron didn't play to Lebron standards. Defense was poor for 3 quarters and offense was not aggressive enough.
Wade and Lebron taking over that 4th quarter...Well done. Fuck you Chris Bosh. Ray Allen got mugged on that second to last play.
Paul George: SportsCenter @SportsCenter 4m “I blacked out and I was blurry.” - Paul George after getting kneed in head by Dwyane Wade Lance had 23 points through 3 quarters and seemed to be on fire. 2 in the 4th quarter.
