Hustle isn't JUST about offensive rebounds, Sixers are probably one of the only teams Heat are bigger than in the playoffs.Which is why a player like Joel Anthony thrived.

Anyone who watched each game could see the Heat played with no passion.It was frustrating to watch until all of sudden they'd go on an epic run or 2.

Chosen01 is right. The Sixers did not have one strong interior rebounder or defender. It certainly paved the way for Joel Anthony to shine. The Sixers clearly out-hustled the Heat to loose balls, but talent won out in the end as it usually does.

The Heat need to find some way to pump themselves up for games. If they don't get pumped to play the Celtics, then something if seriously wrong with them.
