by Kent Sterling When LeBron James is inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame, all recorded traces of the Pacers Game Five win tonight over his Heat will be destroyed as a favor to his legacy. Seven points, two rebounds, four assists, and five fouls do not comprise the line the Heat needed from the […]
by Kent Sterling The potential for the Pacers to suffer a down is high tomorrow night. The Heat didn’t win back-to-back championships by not knowing how to respond to adversity. Paul George and the Pacers should expect a much more frenetic defensive effort from the Heat tomorrow night. Yesterday, the Heat embarrassed themselves by going […]

For weeks, fans and media have been leaping from the Pacers bandwagon like new commissioner Adam Silver planted an […]
by Kent Sterling The Indiana Pacers better make sure their mouthguards fit correctly as the Game Seven they earned tonight is going to bring a response on Monday at 8:30p. The Heat aren’t going to surrender their crown without a fight the likes of which these Pacers have never faced. Tonight, everything that went right […]
