If Haslem makes them, which he usually doesn't.

That being said, it's great for the Heat that he has been making them because I'm sure it drastically changes the Spurs approach.

This. It's lower EV for Heat offense to have U take that shot as opposed to pretty much any other option.

only 2 Oreb for Hibbert tonight. Great effort by Bosh and Bird to get a body on him.

It's certainly not a great shot for Miami, but it's not like he's bad at that shot. He's shot right at league average from that distance for the past 2 years.

With how Indiana's playing defense against Miami, it's not the worst shot in the world. If Miami can get Haslem the ball in that spot and he can make it at a decent clip, it opens things up a bit and it brings out a good defensive rebounder for Indiana.

that plus its usually bron who is finding him while being collapsed on in the paint which puts him in a good position to get an offensive rebound or at least get a tip on the ball which is a really good thing for the heat.

Bottom line is: if Haslem is making that shot then the pacers can't beat them. They have to collapse on bron and somewhat on wade to make them pass and are forced to leave that shot open. Timmy and splitter are more agile so I think they will have a better shot at defending it...but let me berate myself for a second. What the **** is with all this talk of miami and the spurs anyway? After every miami win its been the same from all the douchebags itt. Ray, assaihfakihfah or whatever the **** your name is..such front runners. Be a real fan. Pacers going to send this to game 7 and then who knows? David West might actually start making those 15 footers and haslem starts missing them.

heh, my mom actually knows who he is, but only bc he was driving drunk and crashed into a pole last summer/fall. idk if she knew back then.

but ya kidd was def a star, the east was just lol weak(er) for many years. the wcf was the finals at the start of the last decade.

speaking of the east being lolbad, it still really is minus a select few teams. at least in comparison to the west.

since the seems to travel plenty as is, i really wouldn't mind seeing a random conference realignment. but obv that'll never happen
