The Pacers have just gone cold, man. Wow. The Heat aren't even playing their great defense right now. If they were, this game would be over.
I think you are watching a different game lol. Heat defense is playing really well right now.

Haslem is giving effort for the first time this season, that's why hes hitting shots for the first time this season.
Lmfao, you continue to misinterpret what I said about the effort thing.

Not worth re-explaining it because you're dislike for the Heat isn't going to let you think logically.

It is playing well, but not great. When they're playing great, there's rarely an open shot for the opposing team. The Pacers are getting good shots. They just can't hit them at all.

By the way, if Miami wins this game, this series is essentially over, I think.

Have held them to 29 in the second half. Has a little more to do with defense that it does the offense going cold.

I'm not misinterpreting anything. You said they weren't giving effort. Effort is trying.

Your common excuse for why the Heat lost games is as bad as Bware constantly complaining about officials.

Haslem makes that shot while a defender's in his face? The game is OVER.

I have yet to attribute a Heat loss in these playoffs to a lack of effort. I did in the regular season for several weeks because you could visibly see the difference in their play style and the lack of intensity that they were playing with on defense.

In the playoffs, they have been giving 110% on the entire time.

You did it for several months, aka the entire season because god forbid, and flawed Heat team gets outplayed.

I haven't seen full effort from Wade in every game, and I especially haven't seen full effort from some of the role players.

Haslem shot 52% in the regular season in 2010-2011, 42% this year. I'd venture to say this was a fluke performance.
