NBA: *** NBA Playoffs Thread V2.0 ***

I can't believe Vogel went small against Miami's last play offense again. I'm hoping he just doesn't want to give Miami an idea of what he'd do if that that was a fourth quarter play rather than 2nd quarter.
 
Lance Stephenson is equally terrifying to pacers and heat fans. Goes from bonehead to brilliant in the span of a couple seconds.
 
IMO, the reason people hate the Heat is not because of Lebron or The Decision, it's because their body language throughout the game just reeks of everything you hate in people. They beg, they whine, they tattletale, they fake injuries, they show no respect for authority, they roll around in pain and then prance the moment they get the ball.
 
It's a little embarrassing for Indiana they don't have a better bench, even if you consider a healthy Danny Granger. They have a starting 5 that is equal to or better than the Heat, but can't stay with the Heat once they start to rotate their subs in.

I think the Pacers' management is really good, but I kind of feel like they never expected this starting 5 to be as good as the Heat straight up.
