NBA Playoffs【2013】

[Pervy Wrath]

couldnt really see what happened other than the heat lost(hopes to watch the game replay later)
But this is just another hurdle the champs need to overcome like the 0-1 bulls series. Pacers are good to exploit the post by making Hibbert operate more on game 2.

edit:
*reads above post*....Pacers are undefeated at home? wow that will be interesting =D

True. But if they could win last year being down in three straight series', I'm not too worried this year. But the Pacers are an incredibly poised team. They're solid across the board. The Heat needs Rio, Battier and Allen to step up. They don't need huge numbers, but they need to make their shots. And Wade needs to take better shots. I think it was like a minute left or so during last night's game when he took an incredibly bad floater. It was the equivalent of a turnover.

I see the Pacers putting the Heat out

It's definitely not impossible.

Ok maybe I was wrong...

Haha, don't feel bad xD I was expecting them to take these two home games as well. I guess the Grizzlies will go down in 5. Getting swept would be sad.

Seems like the Spurs are too much for Memphis to handle.

I only saw the 5 minutes of Overtime in the Spurs/Grizzlies game at an TGI Fridays and I was astonished.

I smell a sweep approaching.

Heat got a LOT more out of the bench tonight then what we did on Friday! Seemed like the entire Heat team was going offensively I mean 70 points in a half is a ton, even for NBA. Chris Andersen was definitely a good addition to the team just watching how hard he plays defensively and how well he finishes around the basket I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't start within the next year or two if he keeps with it! With that being said he also would be competing against Haslem who is pretty much the heart beat of that organization so I would be a tough spot to fill. Tonights game kinda reminded me of when the Bulls took game one and after that we didn't let them get another. Heat kinda have a habit of giving up one, but not two. My prediction is Pacers won't get another game.
As for the Grizzlies, they are done for. I saw them live during March and I wasn't impressed. They shouldn't have gotten rid of Rudy Gay especially Mid-Season like they did. Just my opinion.

70 points in a half is a lot, I agree. But this is the playoffs. 70 points in one half in a playoff game is ridiculous!

The Heat seems like they never give it their all until they lose a game in a series. I thought they would have a tougher time getting one in Indy, but once the Heat players set their minds on something, they're going to do it no matter what. But that is a dangerous game to play though, especially when they meet the Spurs(yes, I've counted out the Pacers).

As for the Grizzlies getting rid of Gay, I think that was a good thing. The downside is that they lose their closer, but he just didn't fit with their current roster. Gay is a slasher, and Z-bo and Gasol clogged up the lane for him. Imo, either Gay or Randolph had to go. I think I might have sent out Z-bo myself. Gay is younger, plus they have good post presence with Gasol.

The Pacers made the mistake of trying to play at the Heats pace and they definitely couldn't keep up with them.

Spurs will be a tough one. They definitely have experience on their side with Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili. On the other hand though we(Im a Heat fan if you haven't caught on) have youth and thankfully we have people who have been there and done that a couple of times. Hopefully it will be an interested series unlike last years finals when like we were talking about earlier we give them one and after that we buckle down and take it(like we did with OKC). One the plus side though the Heat will match up a lot better with them then what they are with the Pacers right now.

I would have traded Z-bo. We all saw how he was getting left in the dust by Blake Griffen and since the grizzlies already have a quick Mike Conley who could adapt to the quicker play style I'm sure. Instead the Grizzlies get the old and worn out Prince who probably doesn't have just a whole lot of years left in him. In the end it probably wouldn't have made too much of a difference. They still would have gotten beat by the Spurs in the WCF.

The Spurs definitely have a ton of experience, and good and young complimentary pieces like Danny Green and Kawhi Leonard. But I wouldn't call Miami a young team, I actually think they're one of the oldest teams in the league. Most of the guys who play big minutes are over 30 except for Rio, Cole, LBJ and Bosh. But they have just as much experience as the Spurs imo. I think that will be a good series.

Well, I think getting Prince was a good trade. Value for value wasn't the same, but Prince frees up touches for the rest of the players while still being a good defender and a decent shooter. But yeah, Z-bo should have been traded. But he crushed Griffin though!

Looking forward to watching it! Wow, just looked at the numbers for the Clippers vs Grizzlies series and you're right Z-bo did smack him around pretty good!

He is an insane athlete! To be able to elevate and move as quick as he does for someone his size is very unique!
