Regardless of the reason du jour, the Miami have not played as expected against the Indiana Pacers. There has been far more finger pointing than will imposing by the high-powered Heat stars, LeBron James and Dwyane Wade.
Now down 2-1 in the series, Miami is past gut-check time and into pride-check time. If James and Wade can rise up together with a big performance, everything for the Heat will be back on stable ground with the series even and headed back to Miami for Game 5.
That's where playoff experience comes into play. The next game can change everything. As you'll see in the reports from practice yesterday, the Pacers are expecting nothing less than a motivated and fully healthy Heat team fighting for their collective playoff lives. In a few hours, the Pacers and Heat will have 48 minutes to fight for control of this series and it should be a blast.
