Waiting for the Sixer fans to come explain the only reason the Sixers lost is cause they didn't hit their threes. Doesn't matter Miami controlled pace, rebounded well, muscled Philly up, played great perimeter defense and didn't let Philly get out on the break. Nope. Philly lost cause they just missed some threes.

Miami definitely earned that win.  They put together a strong game.

agree .....their effort was impressive

Can't believe Manu is 40 years old.  Still pretty limber out there.

I'd be interested to know who everyone wants to win this series and why.  I used to think I wanted Miami to win because they were less talented, but now I am not so sure.  If Miami plays defense like this on us, we might have a hard time generating any offense.

I dislike both teams, but I'd rather see Philly lose, just to shut up their fans for a while.

I don't have to deal with many Philly fans in socal, so that isn't an issue for me.  I guess it would be good either way for the philly / heat series to go the distance.  Hopefully it's a war for whichever team gets out of that series.  It feels like it is heading that way.

Lets hope he recovers in time to be a difference maker.  We need all hands on deck if we get past the bucks.

Wow I can't believe the undermanned and under-talented Spurs are hanging around with the Warriors. Was expecting GSW to be up by 20 right now.

love that the Spurs are showing some fight at GS.   Patty Mills just got cracked in the head with a forearm from Iggy and no call.  I guess it really is the playoffs.
