Anxious to see what the Pacers do in the playoffs. The third seed is pretty sweet, but I thought all season they were the third best team in the East. Hopefully they can pull off some surprises in the post season.

On a side note, can't believe Ron Artest only got seven games for that elbow he threw the other night.

Extremely lucky those missed free throws didn't cost them the game.

I think today is judgement day for the Pacers. The Heat will be playing with about as much sense of urgency as a team can and if they shoot better could run out to a good lead in the 1st half. The Pacers need to be with them at the half and then raise the intensity level in the 2nd half to pull this off. This is a big game. A win and I think they'll take the series. A loss and I don't think they can. It'll be interesting to see how this game is officiated. If there are a bunch of early touch fouls called against Hill, Hibbert and George, then the league has decided to see what they can do to keep the Heat around.

The Miami Heat stink! LeBron cannot close out a game. The second he touches the ball late in the 4th, he's passing it off as if it were a hot potato. Wade and his coach aren't seeing eye to eye. I think WHEN the Pacers beat them in this series, we'll see the dismantling of this team.

LBJ just doesn't have the heart. I've watched alot of champions throughout the years, and he just isn't a champion. Pacers are playing great team ball. As mentioned already, if the NBA allows the best team to win, then Pacers should close this out in 6 games.

I'll be watching eagerly today. The Heat just don't have enough talent on their team. Which makes me laugh because they crowned themselves 8-time champions before they even stepped on the court as team mates. "Not 1, not 2, not 3, 4, 5, 6...not 7". Right....because it will be zero! That should be a major embarassing moment for all 3 participants in that pre-Heat championship celebration.

...and nothing makes me happier than watching a bunch of undeserving people have their asses handed to them in the real world. GO PACERS!

Giving up that game yesterday was tough. You either go up 3-1, or go back to Miami tied.

Ive got faith in the pacers. I know the series is tied but it seems like theyre giving Miami all they can handle. Im thinking it goes to game 7 with the pacers winning.

To win it, I think the Pacers need to win the next 2. I just don't see them winning game 7 in Miami. Not enough experience on the team in extremely high pressure situation that a game 7 in Miami would bring. Hoping for a closeout opportunity for the Pacers in game 6.

Anyone else think they're done now? I think they might, stress might (though doubtful now, especially with the injuries) win game six, but I think the series went to Miami midway through Sunday's game. Blew a great opportunity in game four.

They could push it to 7, but doubtful if West and Granger aren't able to go at a normal pace. They had a golden opportunity in game 4 and had the Heat somewhat befuddled in the first quarter. They missed a chance to really go up big early in that game and gave them life. From there, James and the punk known as D Wade have taken over.

I think they win Game 6 as Miami lollygags, but gets crushed again in Game 7.

Truthfully, they just haven't reached that level of maturity they need quite yet.
