I think it ends somewhere in the Bulls-Spurs Knicks end of march start of April if they don't lose it in a letdown game.

Don't think this Pacers game is going to even be a contest.

Did you watch either of the previous two? They play lockdown defense on Miami and everyone hits 3's at a high percentage. We didn't have Birdman last time which might make a difference, I bet you Handborough doesn't get physical with him.



Birdman did play against the pacers in the last game.

I will LOL if Miami loses to Toronto, if only because it'll be something akin to when we beat the 72-win Bulls back in 96.

Watching that game from the bleachers in the Skydome was awesome.

The good thing about this is that Lebron hasn't played particularly well in our last 3-4 games so he's due for another big performance and it might just well come against the Pacers, or he might go on another 6 game tear.

It won't be Indiana or Boston. With as well as Miami is playing it will take them having an off or lackluster night. And they will get up for those teams. I'm expecting a 20+ win tomorrow with how annoyed Wade and Bron are with this Indiana talk. Gonna send a message. Plus, Indiana's backup center is likely out. So the size advantage is less

Miami beats Indy by double digits tomorrow... Pacer fans are Funny. Miami had a better chance losing last two then tomorrow.

People really overrate the pacers on this board... Lol. The pacers would be a 6-8 seed out west. Comical.

And yet they've beat the heat twice already. Rather or not they'll win is whatever, but saying they had a better chance of losing to Orlando or Philly is just stupid.

Miami doesn't get up for the Magic or the Sixers. More likely to lose to a "bad team" they couldn't care less about in a meaningless game out of 82, vs a team that they can't stand, who beat them twice already. Miami's toughest battles in the 17 game win streak was the Cavs, Kings, Magic and Sixers... All at home. What do they all have in common? I'll let you figure it out.


Amazing u couldn't grasp that... Guess that's just "stupid" on your part.

And yet they've already lost to Indiana. Twice. But they just didnt care about those games, right? Yeah, that's stupid. The teams that haven't beat them at all have a better chance of beating hem during a winning streak, makes sense :roll:

I can see your point, but your logic is a fail right now. That's like saying "because I flipped a coin twice and got heads twice, there's a greater chance that I will get heads than tails the third time." The games in the past mean nothing today, especially during this winning streak that had Miami demolish teams like LAC and OKC and win against opponents who had taken care of Miami pretty easily the first time(s) (Memphis, NYK; 2). The previous poster brought up a good point @ how the Heat become very complacent against "bad" teams. It is entirely arguable that a "bad" team has a greater chance than beating the Heat during this winning streak because the Heat can let their guard down while these "bad" teams are entirely capable of doing something (they are NBA teams after all). These "bad" teams gave the Heat a tougher fight than, for example, OKC + the refs. And OKC has a top 3 record. Don't be surprised to see this streak end to one of the sub .500 teams that keep the Heat in check in the last few minutes.

It was more likely for them to lose the last several games looking ahead to the Pacer game than lose that game. I would be somewhat surprised if the Pacers could beat the heat IN Miami. I think the Heat will be focused--and the Pacers aren't that good of a road team.
