Game 7 Grinder

After another long hiatus I am back and will be blogging all this week. Everyone is talking about the Heat/Pacers series. It has gone to the 7th game and has been pound for pound the best series in this entire Playoffs. Paul George and Roy Hibbert have been absolute monsters. The whole Pacers squad have just punted the Heat down low in the post. LeBron has had a terrific series, but he desperately needs help. The rest of the Big Three have been invisible for the series. Good news for Miami is that Chris Andersen is returning after a Game 6 suspension. He will give the Heat a boost. Frank Vogel has done a great job with this Indiana team since his Game 1 blunder. Erik Spoelstra needs to find something to motivate his ball club.
The winner of this will go onto face the Spurs. San Antonio has been playing insanely good basketball. The Pacers would matchup with the Spurs better. It would be very interesting to see Hibbert go up against Duncan. They have to go through Miami first, though. Everyone knows that LeBron will do anything humanly possible to keep this season alive. Wade and Bosh are both listed as Day-to-Day. 

The matchup to watch is Lance Stephenson against Dwyane Wade. Wade has been struggling mightily in this series. His knee is still sore. Stephenson has been on and off. He has the ability to make electrifying plays. This game will be very close and the rambunctious Miami crowd will help the Heat, but as I look up and down every battle, the Pacers match up with this Heat team. I think that Indiana will clinch a berth in the NBA Finals. To see my live updates on the game, follow me on Twitter @MM8sports and like us on Facebook.
